Workers should exercise their power more, imo. We need more folks willing to put tools down, collectively, over stuff like:

* RTO mandates that reduce productivity AND job satisfaction

* High CEO pay outstripping worker pay

* Loss of work autonomy and space (working without an assigned desk)

* Layoffs out of the blue for successful teams

* Weakening benefits

* AI being wedged into whatever task you are working on

I don't care if it's a union, I don't care if it's a guild, I don't care if it's just a group of folks deciding to take action together, whatever. It's time we (especially us in tech) to stop acting like "got mine" and start acting like "get ours".
