Tech Start-Up Fires Engineers Amid Union Organizing Effort
The attitude towards unionisation on this site is sickening.<p>I live in a country with a very strong union movement and the only reason I&#x27;m able to sit here typing this message is because my parents and grandparents unionised rather than live off of slavery wages. That may mean nothing to Americans where it&#x27;s every man for themselves, but don&#x27;t think yourselves so lucky that you got to the position you&#x27;re in without workers uniting with one another and ensuring they get a fair share against the greed of the few.<p>It might not have affected many of you with the silver spoon you have in your mouths but the only damn reason that kids still aren&#x27;t working in sweat shops and you get to go home at 5pm is because of workers organising and having each other&#x27;s backs when abuses and overreach occur, and a little bit of solidarity for each other is necessary when you see such flagrant abuses like this.
