Poll … Let’s see the revenue numbers.

Works for smaller organizations, not so much in a local so big and active we get 209+ people every meeting. I should probably talk to my BA either way though

Hahaha. I’m too low on the chain for now, got no leverage. The head honcho of my local hates technology with a burning passion, it’s not *just* ignorance.

I live in a blue state so it’s not quite as urgent either way, but it’s definitely something I’m going to try to push them to fix.

Self care and avoiding burnout is most important.

Spite will fuel me all the way to the end.

Unfortunately a lot of unions are frankly backwards tech wise. They don’t understand encryption. Especially mine can barely run a website…

Organize. Not just with protests, but with coworkers, form a union, get in contact with one. When it gets worse, unions will be a good avenue to fight back in a meaningful fashion.

Quite frankly, I won’t try because it won’t get widespread enough outside select Internet communities. Unless unions get on board, which they won’t, it’s not going to have the momentum to get an actual effect, as much as I would love to try.

Tech people love to think they don’t need unions. Unfortunately.

Yes, we can all do our bit to help out, but workers pointing fingers at other workers will only ever benefit the ruling class.

Don’t forget that you have more than one finger. You have fingers to spare to point blame at those who deserve it, and few of us in first world countries don’t.

Less than 1% of Americans make federal minimum wage. However, despite your dumb take on the amount of money Americans generally make, I strongly agree that saving $500 a month is a complete possibility for many working Americans
