Amazon will offer Union as a Service and somehow monetize the management overhead
- ddingus 4y agoYou know I kind of chuckled, but I bet the conversation is likely.
- alexashka 4y agoThey'll call it Union Prime.
- zer0faith 4y agoYou forgot hosted in the cloud, fully automated deployment and secure.
- koolba 4y agoYou joke but I bet whatever software unions use to track member dues and involvement is in dire need of a 2022 upgrade. Everything from soliciting donations, text chains, to coordinating work stoppages. And charging SaaS-style per member makes perfect sense.
- after_care 4y agoMaybe we can encourage unionizing by generating a quality union management software package.
- dylan604 4y agoYou'll have to take a union vote to decide what framework to use
- dylan604 4y agoHey! There's nothing wrong with that spreadsheet created way back in the 80s that keeps track of dues payments. It was probably even created by Hoffa's executive assistant.
- elcamino44 4y agoI’ve done a bit of consulting in this space. It really depends on the union. Some are stuck in the 90s but some are doing all the fancy modern stuff you’d expect. And yes, there are SaaS tools aimed at the union market that charge per member monthly fees.
- pempem 4y agoOr we could just build it and remove the possibility?
- gunfighthacksaw 4y agoI’ve thought about this. DemocraTech: disrupting workplace democracy. Imagine an app that holds all the forms for your jurisdiction and allows signing similar to docusign via text message. Would make union formation much more discreet and asynchronous. I’m sure there’s applications for dues, collective agreements etc.
