Huh, hadn’t seen that before. But does that necessarily mean it is a strong union? Couldn’t it also mean it’s an employer-controlled union that is not really going to do anything for you?

Exactly, everything was measured by how well Intel did, they were the undisputed standard bearer.
IBM went through a huge transformation. More than one probably. Most if not all giant firms have had to reinvent themselves many times over. I remember the pivot from a technology company to services and consulting, which was hugely controversial, as I got to see that relatively up close. I won’t forgive them for giving up thinkpad though.
And to think I grew up at a time when Intel reigned supreme. My my.
That sounds comically bad. Like hard to believe bad. Even the slightest mention of anti-Zionist feeling is forbidden now on Reddit?
I recently saw a rent affordability chart, which was much more interesting (and more sanely formatted). Some of the locations listed as cheapest are actually the most expensive when adjusted for median income.
I tried the movie, thinking it might actually be interesting even if I disagree with his politics. Couldn’t make it past the 15-20 min mark. Found it very trite and… pointless really, unless you’ve never watched a movie about the good natured folks of the country and their toils. Or about making it in life by the grace of God and hard work. This movie will smack you in the face with ‘American values’ any chance it gets. Or so I gathered for the short time I watched it.
No not really, if you read more about unions you will see that they aren’t always working in their members’ best interests and sometimes union leadership will ally with employers to secure their futures above those of union members. Not all unions are created equal. From what little I know and have read in the past about unions. Not that I have first hand experience.
