Seriously, I've had a union organiser lament that WFH was making it hard to work with a certain part of the company. You can't just set up a lunch or coffee meeting if everyone is in on different days (it's not a co-operative role).

I don't blame the workers for the constraints of their garbage company. I doubt they can just pick what they want to write about, they're ultimately working to survive and taking the jobs on offer. Plus, systematic pressures on mass media are a whole thing.
