Comment on SAG-AFTRA Seeks Approval for Second Strike Against Video Game Companies

  It’s kind of funny how you are wrong in every way.

  • Union workers earn 20% more.
  • You shouldn’t work while injured. Worker’s comp is a thing.
  • You pay a dime to get a dollar.
  • It’s not abuse to take sick time, but you already stated people should work injured.

  Thank unions.

    Union workers can and do make minimum wage even with plenty of experience and years on the job. Unions take dues on that minimum wage, so they take home even less. Unions target higher paying jobs for your propaganda statistic. People lose union jobs because they aren’t permitted to work jobs they can perform. Good workers don’t want to sit out temporarily ‘collecting’ like the lazy people that like unions.

      I heard unions are not a thing in China and Russia. I recommend you migrate to either for two years, then come back and tell us if you want unions or not.

        There are no unions in self employment. I recommend you stop leeching off others and try working for your self.

  A lot of “Temporary Embarrassed Billionaire” vibes.

    A lot of predatory union propaganda. Be sure to call your union to down-vote, because that’s the kind of stupid collective shit unions do.

  Yes, blame your co-workers for everything. It must be their faults. They’re all “deadbeats” and “abusers.”

  Also, your job is supposed to provide for you when you’re injured.

    No, that’s called mooching. Freeloader.

      It’s mooching to get compensated for injuries while at work? Really?

    And they would have if the Union didn’t interfere with their job codes bullshit.

      Sure they would have. And worked 10 hour days 7 days a week with no overtime or safety protections or health insurance.
