I want to create a union at my work, but writing for a new job is so much easier. (lemmy.today)

I work in tech. At my previous job, I started organizing a union and got maybe 20 people out of 70 involved in actively planning and being interested. But I left my old job for this one, because I could be paid more with less work. And now there's a new job on the horizon which promises another 10-20k a year, and again, the call of more money outweighs the urge to improve the current situation. Anyone else ever dealt with this issue?

Unless the company is massive you’re better off planting the seed and leaving

Fair enough.
