I get it, but this is UCSF in SF a progressive city that talks the talk about worker rights. When push comes to shove, they don't care --it's all about money.

A significant portion of the IT staff at UCSF were long-time immigrants to the US, not that it should matter, but SF is about diversity.

- ok_dad 4y ago> SF is about diversity This is the straw-man various groups use when trying to bring down progressives, but SF is just a city with no political views, the people in it are who hold what views, and I would argue that SF is absolutely not progressive, and the idea that it is is just a continuation of that straw-man to this day. Anyways, on the topic, that was a shitty thing to do for UCSF and they shouldn't have done it.
