Just curious. Sometimes it's hard to keep track which anonymous is which. ;-)<br /><br />I'm going to guess there might be less negativity and more constructive posts.<br /><br />But then again, without the negativity, it would be a very quiet blog. :-P<br /><br />signed,<br />Anonymous 556Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-8888704497086183982011-07-21T18:40:54.446-07:002011-07-21T18:40:54.446-07:00I wish so badly that Canada had a union or guild. ...I wish so badly that Canada had a union or guild. Count yourselves lucky that you have someone to come to bat for you instead of counting on yourselves alone. There is so much strength in numbers and the worst part of all of this is FEAR. That is what holds us back and I swear given the oportunity I would fight for the rights of my fellow artist and with no question. We deserve better and the crappy democratic dictatorship we suffer under and it can kiss my not so shiny organic rear end. If everyone joins the fight to reach a common goal in the face of fear, I think we would be surprised at the outcome.<br /><br />Other countries are still years behind us for skill and experience. The two things studios take for granted and the two things that keep the deep pockets of those fat cats filled. They need us.<br /><br />Go to your meetings and participate in your future.

But you do have to speak up, and stand up. Anonymous comments won't do it. Go to meetings, engage Hulett when he's in your studio, call the office and ask questions, make suggestions, get yourself on the negotiating committee. Read the Peg-Board and this blog and actually understand how things work, and see where a little effort can go a long way.<br /><br />Or sit on your hands because it's too much trouble. It's the choice we all have to make. The TAG staff can't make if for us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-44740798518116466052011-07-21T16:54:44.179-07:002011-07-21T16:54:44.179-07:00Great.

That's exactly what I'm saying.<br /><br />Like I did when I was a story-person at Disney Feature and became TAG Veep. Like President Bob Foster does as a board artist at Disney TVA.
