Isn't it convenient that by firing 34 union members, that takes the union under the threshold where Rockstar have to legally recognise them?
"Rockstar, Rockstar, you're disgusting, we charge you with union busting," the protesters declared.

Going through all my childhood stuff my parents kept and then decided to unburden themselves of. It would have been fine to get rid of these things in a reasonable time frame but now there's sunk cost fallacy, I need some emotional payout to them being kept this whole time 😩
