Right. If I am producing 10x more output then I expect to be getting paid about 8x more or working 8x less.

You should talk to your union rep about that, because renegotiations like that won't happen on the individual basis just because you think its right. And almost all lack the leverage, individually, to make it happen.

Of course, until just recently, Big Tech workers were so proud to be on top of the world that they didn't think unions made sense for them.

Were you among them? Has that changed?

something something you're paid the amount the market values your work, which in today's job market is an order of magnitude less than the profit you bring the company
