Even the terrible developers that are a drain on the company and hence compensation? No thanks

Do terrible NBA players get to keep their jobs? The pithy response is to point at like, James Harden, but on the whole professional basketball is very meritocratic and yet they have a union.

Pro sports in general. Netflix said they run their company like a pro sports team, why not include that players have a union?

Sports is different because there’s only a certain number of spots on the field. This changes the dynamics and keeps the crab mentality at bay. The same is not true for most workplaces.

How so? The limited number of spots seems like it would enhance negative behavior, not curb it.

Nobody forced them to hire them?

Remember that people who believe things like this would be in the same union as you, be paid just as well as you thanks to union contracts, and expect you to strike on their behalf. Do you really want to be in solidarity with people like this?

So? Everybody else would be too.

Did you also renounced your citizenship because there was someone you didn't like in your same country?
