Good for them. I guess I won't hold my breath for AWS SREs to go on strike in solidarity, but if there were ever a time it would be now. Edit: No strike threat

Good for them. I guess I won't hold my breath for AWS SREs to go on strike in solidarity, but if there were ever a time it would be now. Edit: No strike threat, but there's a petition here https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/amazon-must-protect-workers-and-community-from-covid-19 https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/amazon-must-protect-work... Better than nothing!

This is why we need a tech workers union

  So those whose views are different from union leadership can nevertheless be compelled to lend weight to those views? No thanks.

    It's called solidarity. You acknowledge that more vulnerable people can benefit from your support, such as the fulfillment centre workers being supported by the SREs in this case. But if you only care about yourself and never worry that you might need support from others some day, then yes, I suppose it's not really for you.
