Reposted by Dan TrottWill 🌱 @willmesilane.com · 24/07/2026In October last year I was fired by Rockstar Games in what we believe was a union busting move. We lost our home. We lost 2 jobs with my partner being forced to resign. We lost a community. Most importantly however we had to leave our two dogs behind, one of which will never return. 6415166
Reposted by Dan TrottChris Bratt @chrisbratt.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Back in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...youtube.comRockstar Fired 34 People, but the Union Is Bigger than EverYouTube video by People Make Games 3919357
