To what extent to platforms facilitate union formation? To what extent do they discourage it? You'd think websites like glassdoor, linkedin, and this one would all be in an incredibly powerful position from the point of view of union organizing and the way they design the site could work for us or against us. So I'm asking two questions - how do we use the sites to build solidarity and organize unions but also can the sites better facilitate this process?

Cold applied for an awesome role, had an interview with hiring manager, recruiter, and given a pretty hefty assignment that I’m really proud of nailing. They followed up with an email asking for 4-5 days that I am available for a full day of interviews. Gave them 4-5 days, started planning for how I’d get those days off work during insane times at current job, and now not a single word from them to confirm a date. Been over a week now. Sad. Pretty jaded. What can I do? Already followed up

It's been a busy couple of weeks at my workplace. Have you all been keeping your heads above water?

The first things you need to organize your workplace are a full staff list and an org chart (title hierarchy). If those don't already exist, you can make them.

Work on yours this week!

Rumors that an NYC-based PR company may be in the midst of organizing. They'd be the first in our industry, but still no advertising agencies yet!

Humane hours would be nice. Also some parameters for weekend work. It either doesn’t happen or we are paid handsomely for it?

Anyone else still at work? Because I am.

And some people wonder why I started this bowl.

My partner and dog are sitting at home waiting for me.

Sigh.

Thanks for starting this bowl and looking forward to sharing it with others and bringing in resources as needed for topics and discussions that are so very needed in our industry.

"The real inconvenient truth is not just that there is environmental pollution, which there certainly is, but that there is also social pollution. The work hours that companies are demanding of...”

Imagine being the first agency to unionize. Imagine the press. For an industry that is so fueled by media attention, it would be a company's dream... wouldn't it?

When they lay people off, they often keep things quiet because it will "effect morale". But the firing itself is what effects morale. Being secretive about it undermines respect and harms morale more.
