>Work less? Or work 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week? There are plenty of examples out there of people who think that is the bare minimum.
Work less. There is no point in trying to put out anymore output than the bare minimum required if that's both the agreement between the union and the employee (promotions based on tenure) and between the union and the company (agreements on what minimum deliverables employees will deliver).
>Of course, that is what a strike is, but a necessary evil.
It's more than a strike. Continuing what I wrote above, unions will introduce obvious inefficiencies in order to support red tape processes rather than focusing on what the company is trying to accomplish. (e.g. no code can be committed without a review by two other clocked in union members while being backed by a ticket groomed by a clocked in agilist and released by two clocked-in SRE folks).
I work in an org with a developer union; I can tell you I was asked to join a few times and every time said no.. it is sooooo incredibly bad i just cant imagine how a union would be good for IT. I have so much to say but don't know where to begin or how to even write it all..

> They directed the members to engage in behavior that was best for the union while bad for the workers and the company.
Of course, that is what a strike is, but a necessary evil.
