    The decision for tech to unionize has nothing to do with how the cleaning staff is treated

      How can you force the bosses to pay cleaning staff properly if the engineers aren’t striking for them? There’s a gazillion desperate scabs out there and I can’t even blame them, how can you blame someone with two jobs for wanting a third to pay rent.

      …that, btw, is why the likes of the IWW organise companies and industries, and not trades.
