I think there is a huge amount of anti-techie backlash growing. Its going to be major.

Good for them.

The answer is to unionize the service workers.

Where is Cesar Chavez when you need him

These are the new grape vine workers.

Moon, I'm not really clear on why they picked on the Apple store for that protest. Security guards are hugely underpaid I know but why Apple? It isn't on Union Square and it's only one of more than a hundred stores that employ security guards, none of whom are working for union shops. Is there a security guard union? Do they fall in with waiters and hotel workers? If they wanted to be noticed by more than the staff and customers in the Apple store they should have chosen Neiman Marcus or Tiffany's or Saks or a dozen more right on Union Square. Dumb choice. Apple has one security guard, one. How many do you suppose Macy's or any of the other large stores have?
