“You should stay in a union job. If you don’t, the union can’t protect you anymore”.

Terrible advice from a union rep many years ago after I got hired to a management position. I ended up tripling my salary within 5 years after leaving the union position and then started my own adjacent business that I eventually built up to 2M/yr revenue.

If I stayed in the union job I would be making $45k a year right now.

The waves are interesting. First, it's the War on Terror (I assume), then it's Woke Cancel Culture. It looks like that was dying down, although maybe it's just that Covid shut down a lot of campuses.

I'd be curious if the recent spike is a continuation of the old woke stuff or if it's more about the Ukraine/Russia and Israel/Palestine conflicts.
