1. Except for the Visual Effects artist who work 90 hours a week with no overtime
and are mostly young and unable to understand the concept of a union. Meanwhile their jobs are being outsourced.

Somehow they think the coolness of making dancing soap bars makes up for that.. and the owners of the Effects companies do not want unions. It's mostly the fault of the the big names such as Time Warner that contract the smaller effects companies. They make the vendors underbid one another. A union could force things to improve no doubt.

What I'm not sure I understand is whether this would help outsourcing to Asia and Canada.
