I think that's just IT jobs in general. I noped out after 15 years, no fucking clue what I'll do but I can tell you it'll be anything but IT
IT workers desperately need to unionize. There is so much bullshit that happens, folks are expected to do three different roles at once, have multiple technical stacks they are experts in, and work extra hours + be on call after hours or on weekends.
100%. A full on IT Workers Union would immediately become one of the most powerful weapons in fighting the oppression of the capitalist class. An IT strike could be effective enough that a general strike wouldn’t be necessary
That's true. Let the largest BGP routers go down for 5 minutes and any demands the people who run them have would be met.
