I’m not comparing this directly to the @AMPTP imposed strikes that @WGAWest and @sagaftra are battling now but this does neatly encapsulate an attitude that permeates corporate culture and explains the rising power of the labor movement. Workers matter.
Property developer and CEO Tim Gurner: "We need to see unemployment rise. Unemployment has to jump 40, 50 percent in my view. We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around."

How is this “in solidarity?” Anyone? Beuller?

Once negotiated a deal where BA said they wouldn’t give me my quote because the project was “low budget”. I said, great, pay me what I’m worth, I’ll write out the commensurate expenses, you wont know the difference. Which I could do. Because I was trained. On sets. In production.

I’ll take the definition of insanity for 1.8 billion, Carol.
If the studios’ chief negotiator isn’t willing to negotiate to restart the industry HER strategy shut down, it might be time for the studios to find a new chief negotiator.

🇺🇸 I’m Colin Allred, and I’m the Democrat running for Senate against Ted Cruz. I’m counting on 50,000 supporters to endorse my campaign by 11:59 p.m. Please, will you personally endorse my campaign now and join our people-powered movement?

Here’s an infuriating idea: If Lauren Boebert wins again in 2024, she becomes eligible for a lifetime congressional pension – paid for by you, the taxpayer. If that doesn’t make you want to give $10 right now to Adam Frisch’s campaign to defeat Boebert, we don’t know what will.

Right? Like do monopoly and anti-trust laws mean anything to this business?
