That was in 1938. The status quo is different today, so that doesn't really apply.

- deogeo 7y agoThe status quo is people being pressured into overtime, and having to juggle multiple part-time jobs that add up to more than 40 hours/week. It still applies, and the status quo can get worse as soon as worker's power wanes.
- mind-blight 7y agoOne of the biggest employee complaints at almost every tech company I've worked at is a lack of work life balance. Most of my friends who still work in the bay struggle with having a life outside of work. Wanting to work 40 hours a week can be seen as not being dedicated enough, or not being a cultural fit. I think that's one of the most relevant needs that would drive tech workers to form a union.
