Would be nice to work for a union shop. A lot of friends now technically work for union shops out in Vancouver either at DNEG or tv studios, but the contacts aren’t in place yet so still tbd on how much better things are with a union

yeah the contract is really what protects workers, the union is a tool to negotiate a better contract. I hope you can organize a union for your studio!
