Do either of these two things you’ve outlined come from things you’ve personally experienced or is this theory and speculation? The first seems to preclude the possibility that someone could be pivoting out of one career and into tech, and

I apologize if asking for your opinion on unionization was read as having made the assumption that you were full-on against unionization, the purpose of me asking for your input was a precise attempt to avoid assuming what your opinions w
