Pre and post DS9 Trek had a lot of optimism. DS9 was a space station on an unstable border, shorly after the end of hostilities that was inevitably going to be a pivotal point in the next few galactic wars. I can't over recommend the documentary:

What We Left Behind:
Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
2018
1h 56m
"The writers and cast of Deep Space 9 meet and discuss a hypothetical new DS9 episode set with the now older characters,"
"while the cast reminisces about their roles. We learn why people joined the show, why they left, what they regret not seeing and how long they had to spend in the makeup chair."
Since the sum total of my directing and producing experience is a video for French class, I’m not confident that any streaming service is going to take a meeting with me.
Just a perfect set of circumstances.
I actually shared a story for that one myself but I strongly doubt it's getting selected, the winners are always *so good*
For reference, the post was 2024-03-18's "the fake union organizer, the lemon zest, and other Machiavellian triumphs at work".
The Prince would never...!

While I really love this story, I have to say that it's unlikely to actually be real. It's really hard to organize a union single-handed, in a small shop.
But in this scenario, there's no reason why that would happen. Look, I've been in the labor movement for nearly 9 years, which means I unfortunately know a little bit about just how hard it is to organize one.
I mean, never said he was *successful* at getting a union going. Merely planting the "I'm unionizing, not selling weed" seed was just there to cover his ass.
It really seems to depend on how much the bosses hate you. My roommate was part of organizing a single store he worked at (hilariously because each marijuana store was a separate business and therefore seperate vote)
