@lexfridman What if imperfections aren’t imperfections at all, we only perceive them that way

@matthewloeb @unimei Feedback from IATSE members

[Andrea Medina @MsAndreaMedina]

@matthewloeb You sold us out during the initial negotiations by withdrawing too many demands and giving AMPTP what they wanted.

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @unimei From Nov:

[Sound Speeds @SoundSpeedsYT]

@matthewloeb Nearly 99% of IATSE was willing to strike if it meant strong arming the AMPTP into a deal. Instead you pushed the "nobody wants to strike" narrative and used that to avoid a strike, you should have been anxious to go thru with the strike. We had so much power and momentum.

@matthewloeb Basic agreement voting results:

49.6% - YES
50.4% - NO

@GhostPanther Think about making a commitment to doing 12hr max shoot days with 12hr turn arounds. That’s what Haskell Wexler fought for. Everything else is just noise.

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @IATSE This agreement makes it clear that American workers health / safety is not a priority. This was performative and in the end greed won.

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @IATSE In the EU it is against the law to work more than 48hrs in 5 day period

@matthewloeb Loud & clear, 98.68% want:

“…basic human needs…meal breaks, adequate sleep, and a weekend”

and 100% of crew members deserve that. Thank you.

@matthewloeb Link to Form 990 for AMPTP

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb AMPTP president Carol Lombardini was paid $2,139,729 in 2019 (according to this public record Form 990). She is highly incentivized negotiate against unions. Vote yes.

[Matthew D. Loeb @matthewloeb]

Our goal is not to strike. Our goal is a fair deal. @IATSE members deserve to have reasonable rest, sustainable benefits, living wages, and meal breaks. #IASolidarity

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @IATSE There has never been a good reason for shooting a +12 hr day with less than a 12hr turnaround besides the greed of wanting to make more money at the expense of the health & safety of your workers

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @IATSE This, exactly:

“Why haven’t the producers replied to our demands?…Because there’s no good argument for not giving workers rest and meal breaks”

[Science Horizon @science_horizon]

@matthewloeb @IATSE Keep fighting for adequate rest periods & the health/safety of crew members. Don’t back down. Thank you. Now is the time for change.
