    A half day strike is not enough, telling them ahead of time how long your strike will last is not how to do it.

      It’s fine for the first time, as long as it’s followed up with the threat of an indefinite strike

      Honestly, depending on the particulars of how that type of thing fits into the bigger picture, that could unironically be good?

      Physical protests are the most visible form of protest currently, but any way for immunocompromised people and others for whom it’s not safe to be out in the crowd to still contribute is probably a good thing.

      And I’m sure the internet is clever enough to come up with a way to amplify those voices effectively eventually.

    I can only imagine the hellish commute a NYT tech worker must endure. Let them work from wherever the fuck they want.

        That’s because cities are often under the populace estimate to be taking the transit they provide. Wfh for jobs that shouldn’t require someone to clog the system further and be forced to add to emissions would be the easiest and most efficient fix.

    I got spam from zoom telling me how to use their tools to better work from home less than a couple of weeks after zoom announced a mandatory return to work policy.
