The film industry has a lot of unions as well, including for their "above average" people (writers, actors, etc.)

    I think most engineers/developers/scientists would welcome, or at least be fine with, being a member of a guild like writers and actors. Their parent poster is suggesting that a traditional US union is the way, which I personally don't agree with and don't think I am unique in that regard.

This is a frustrating comment. Please elaborate with a real point! Just highlighting something that used to be the case, does not imply that it should always be the case, nor does it imply that it reflects the case now.

This is the propaganda they used to keep us from organizing in our best interest.

    Right, they want you to believe that each of us is a special little snowflake so we can crab bucket each other.

    Of course, simultaneously, they treat us as completely fungible. Every engineer is like any other in their eyes.

    Such a perfect contradiction should surely spark introspection in employees... you would think.
