  1. #WarumFAU?

    T, Programmierer, Baden-Württemberg:

    "Ich bin in der FAU, weil ich die gegenseitige Solidarität schätze und ich dort Selbstorganisation erfahren kann."

    Bis zum 1. Mai berichten Mitglieder, warum sie Teil unserer Gewerkschaftsbewegung sind und senden uns Fotos von sich und ihren Arbeitsplätzen.

  3. Ultra-Elite Gatherings Surface Through Whistleblower Account

    A former tech worker earning $180,000 a year has quit to join exclusive parties, reportedly serving as a 'human table' for $10,000 per night.

  4. Something that I find really psychologically difficult - especially while trying to find a job - is trying so hard to find my place in tech and needing to feel like I belong, and then at the same time feeling personally attacked by many on "social media" who make sweeping comments about "people in tech".

    I know "they don't mean me", right? But even just reading it, because I identify as a Tech Worker, makes me feel like I am morally reprehensible to people.

    But even worse, it makes me discouraged from finding tech work.

    There are a lot of good, ethical, and supportive people in tech. Maybe in the minority. Let's celebrate THEM and don't let the assholes upstage us by giving them any stage time at all.

    Celebrate the good in technology work. Show gratitude for those who help others. Ignore the toxicity, let it fade into a barely noticeable background noise.

  6. It’s not quite 5pm on the west coast but I like to get to the shop early and make sure coffee is hot and ready so I am going to call it for the week!

    That means if you are a #techworker you have not Union Shop, a Shop Steward, and someone working on your behalf.

    Times are tough, I am ready to stand up and fight with you, for you, and for the future of skilled tech workers.

    I can be pissed off or I can do something. I want a shop to steward, I want to find ways to make work worth it. I want to build something bigger than me, and I want to build community where it can be hard to find in today’s work place.

    It’s bigger than Craig but he shows up every Friday for us, let’s give them something to look forward to.

    #unionize Tech Workers Now!

  8. Für die Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung habe ich einen kleinen Artikel über die #TechWorker Bewegung in den #USA geschrieben, die sich nach euphorischen Anfangsjahren gerade mit einer großen Entlassungswelle konfrontiert sieht. Der Text basiert auf Gesprächen mit einigen Protagonist:innen der Bewegung, die ich vergangenes Jahr in New York und einigen anderen Orten führen durfte.

  12. Più tecnologia, meno umanità. Il video del Fronte dei lavoratori delle piattaforme digitali dell'Ecuador – FrenApp

    @lavoro

    La falsa autonomia dei #techworker, la mancanza di regolamentazione delle aziende in #Ecuador e la sordità delle imprese alle richieste dei lavoratori: ma tariffe, bonus pioggia, supplementi notturni, e assicurazione furto si possono ottenere.

  14. CW: Long thread/18

    Once you understand that corporate conduct is a matter of power, not personality, then you understand that the way to prevent companies from harming you is to meet their power with #CountervailingPower. This is why #TechWorker #unions matter: organized #labor has historically been the most important check on corporate power, which is why tech companies are so vicious in the face of union drives:

  16. Politici e imprenditori parlano costantemente della necessità di formare più #techworker per raggiungere gli obiettivi di #digitalizzazione del paese.

    Molto più raramente, però, ci si sofferma ad analizzare le condizioni di chi nel settore tech, in Italia, lavora già.

    Per #GuerreDiRete ho parlato con @chobeat di @twcitalia delle rivendicazioni specifiche dei lavoratori tech italiani, dalla lotta al #bodyrental al diritto al #lavorodaremoto. Il risultato è qui 👇 👩‍💻

  18. Hacking&Tessile: per chi non lo sapesse, chi si occupa di ricamo (o di modellismo) oggi è a tutti gli effetti un #TechWorker e per lavorare affidarsi sempre a software proprietario con licenze estremamente costose, considerando che quel software sia stato ammortizzato economicamente da molto tempo.
    Ecco perché la notizia apparsa solo sui quotidiani locali del Veneto andrebbe letta al di là della semplice notizia di reato.
