you know what else should be stressed? collective bargaining..it helps sometimes when your fellow coworkers band together to get a raise or to make the work environment better.
- eru 16y agoDo you have experience with collective bargaining? As far as I can tell lots of hackers abhor it.
- sigstoat 16y agoin my experience they abhor what you get when you start handing money and power to the collective, and stop paying attention to what it's doing to you.
- omouse 16y agoThey abhor it but they may never have tried it. A lot of other workers have collectively bargained and received higher pay and other non-pay benefits. Also, it's not like you have to form a union or anything. Just collectively bargain for a raise or whatever this one time.
- eru 16y agoHas there ever been a controlled study about whether collective bargaining leads to higher wages in the long run? (Excluding effects like lobbying for restrictions on entering the market.) From what I know, I can't rule out that collective bargaining for higher wage is like advancing the tide with a bucket.
