Here’s an example, lest anyone wonder how this could happen.
Mr O’Keefe told the BBC that he worked on the hit show from his “tiny” Brooklyn flat, or sometimes from the public library when his electricity failed.
“I wouldn’t classify all writers as being poor or broke but I can say myself I have $6 (£4.81) in my bank account,” he said.
Mr O’Keefe said that while he was working on The Bear, he would have to use a space heater to warm his Brooklyn apartment, sometimes causing his electricity to go out.
He said he would then end up in a library, writing a hit show that is making lots of money for other people.
When he and his colleagues won best comedy series at the Writers Guild of America Awards, Mr O’Keefe said he went to the ceremony in a suit bought for him by his friends and family and wore a bowtie bought on credit.
Yep, those spoiled workers that conservatives are always talking about … hypocrites too! /s
Not really. Picket lines are formed outside specific enterprises or industries where there’s a conflict between labour and management. In the case you mention, the workers represented by the union being picketed were going to jobs at other places where there wasn’t a related dispute.
