Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

He's responding to claims that the company has benefited the company, which is well within the realm of what a CEO would be expected to talk about.

The ony thing that approaches an opinion about the strike is the statement that he wants to resolve it soon, which...horror!

He could resolve it tomorrow by accepting the union's reasonable demands. He could have resolved it weeks ago by accepting the union's reasonable demands.

As far as I'm aware neither he nor anyone from Paramount are part of the negotiating committee.

He's the head of the company, he could accept the union's terms on behalf of Paramount any time.

That's true, he could. But I've seen no evidence that he's actively fighting the union's demands unlike Iger, Zaslav, and Sarandos. I'd love to see evidence to the contrary if it exists, though.

Management is necessarily the enemy of the worker.
