To the WGA members. I think this is a good deal. It will be tested over the next three years because that’s what always happens. It will be poked and prodded by the AMPTP and business affairs and whomever else is trying to make a little more money by spending less.
So we have to stay aware of changes in the business, which will come! And as they come we have to adapt the contract to protect ourselves. These contracts are chipped away at, one tiny piece at a time, and if we aren’t constantly paying attention & engaging, we’ll be back here.
So let’s not! We showed incredibly solidarity and vigilance. We can do that in non strike times as well. Be aware of, as @KenTremendous calls it, fuckery. It will bubble up and we have to be alert and let each other know.
And lastly, we do not win this contract without the help do the teamsters and IATSE who sacrificed a shit ton for us. When it’s their turn we have to be there for them.
