If the union wants to be taken seriously, then it needs to make serious proposals.
The rest of the proposal is dog-bites-man, which isn't really news. This is so far out in left field that of course it is news. It may be a small piece of the proposal, and perhaps even a negotiating tactic, but it makes the union look unreasonable and impossibly out of touch.
- Apocryphon 3y agoIt’s one minor point. I think HN’s hatred of tipping culture has been triggered and all of this is a disproportionate response about a point that will likely get dropped in the first round of negotiations.
- compiler-guy 3y agoI don't think it is just hatred of tipping culture--although that is there too--but also a general skepticism about unions. Unions have a pretty severe credibility problem among significant pieces of the HN crowd, and this proposal is so absurd that it makes the problem worse.
