Tim Bray is brave and does what you do if you're in that position and you care. He also handled himself gracefully and didn't let big media make him the story instead of the events (and his summary of them).

Giving many people jobs where they work their bodies to the bone and can't catch their breath or go to the bathroom is not a point of pride. If you're one of the world's largest companies, you have no excuse not to pay them a living wage and allow them luxuries like breathing. If you can't afford to pay people living wages or turn it down to a sane workload without undoing your business, you are by definition running an operation you should not be allowed to be running. When a company makes its money this way, it is evil and exploitative.

Established unions don't always do what they're supposed to, but trying to keep people from organizing is fighting a war against your own employees.
