Hacker News new | ask | show | jobs

Not everyone here will feel that way. Hacker news has a lot of owners, managers and what John Steinbeck called "temporarily embarrassed millionaires" (e.g. future failed startup founders).

They won't frame what they consider to be their self interest as naked self interest though, they'll dress it up as concern for the average worker or an opinion that organizing is ultimately futile because sometimes you lose.

I'm sure many of them are reaching for the downvote as they read this.

Worker here, with no aspiration of being a millionaire, a manager or an owner:

I hate unions. They always end up being led by parasites that have no idea how to do the actual job, looking to rent-seek on the backs of people who do.

How much do you hate for time off at weekends, paid vacations and medical leave?
