TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

What do you mean by strict? In my experience (US) We have a lot of flexibility in what we're allowed to do. There are limitations, and yes they are bullshit, but I wouldn't describe them as strict.
What do you mean by cross industry union? Several unions, my own included, represents a broad cross section of the working class. A lot of the unions that make up a company, department, or workplace are made up all positions
Ok, I don't really know what I'm talking about. I think the deal is that there is a concept of a "bargaining unit", and the government usually limits bargaining units to one workplace, or maybe one employer. And employers can't be compelled to negotiate with a group that is not a single bargaining unit. So in practice organizing has to be done workplace by workplace. Unless I've misunderstood.
Oh I see. What that means when it comes to the bargaining unit is that the company can't negotiate a separate contract with the same employees that circumvent the union. This is a good thing imo, it keeps us unified.
Union structure is much more complex than that. A bargaining unit is a single contract and that bargaining unit is a union, but if these individual unions gain enough power, they can come together and force companies within an industry to negotiate a standard contract. That's what happens with the wga. It's the long term goal that every organizer should strive for imo
