Tech workers finding out a little too late
Everyone always makes it sound like everyone else was already in a union and tech workers were snearing at them, but tbh I'm not sure I know a single person that is part of a union in any field. They just aren't that common in recent history outside of a few specific areas, and everyone is finally seeing the need together. (I would have thought the insane crunch and week long mandatory on call a lot of people deal with in tech would have been enough but apparently it takes the threat of layoffs to get people serious)
I’ve known plenty of tech workers who were all about the perceived hierarchy they felt they had by working in tech. I guess the experience is subjective though
Yes, they are called assholes.
