It is WILD to me how many people just loudly broadcast their intention to scab, as if that isn't the fastest way to brand yourself as someone who will throw anyone else to the wolves in an industry that runs on collaboration, so every writer say it with me
I should mention that the reason many, many new writers have not been able to get staffed (and often can't even get a foot in the door) is literally highlighted in several of the WGA's asks. I was regularly talking to folks already higher up the ladder than I was in 2018 and 2019, and when I talked to people in support staff positions, they'd say, "Have you considered looking into development?" and when I talked to people in development, they'd say, "Why not look into support staff roles?" because open jobs in those realms no longer existed.
The elimination of writers rooms meant fewer writing gigs, which meant less space for people in support roles to get promoted, and at the same time downsized support staff altogether. The rise of minirooms cut paid development roles. These aren't even really things the guild is trying to add—they're things that used to exist as a pipeline for writers moving up in seniority that they want to get back.
If you scab because you're bitter that you haven't been able to get a job, you're not only undermining the guild and setting yourself up to get barred from ever working in union writing circles, you're personally helping increase the likelihood that another strike is necessary next negotiation period by making it harder for the guild to combat the circumstances that have made it impossible for you to get staffed up until now.
