First was the @etui Cyborg Workers conference. Standouts for me were the initial session with Renny Hahamovitch (anxieties and hopes of the space age worker), Eszter Bartha (automation in the GDR and Hungary), and Craig Gent (getting real with management), as well as the opening keynote on day 2 by Jason Resnikoff (technology, management, and worker power). Highly recommend the whole event

Employees at the #Aviano Air Base who serve #American forces got a familiar demand to list their achievements. #Unions say Italy “is not the Wild West like the U.S.”

The result set the stage for a puzzling clash of cultures, with the world’s richest man and his job-thrashing chain saw on one side, and one of the world’s most protective champions of the forever job on the other.
