Our union at the theatre stops us working on Sundays or before 8am, meaning we have to work harder and faster to get jobs finished.
Surely if everyone knows these restrictions are in place it's not the unions fault if time is allocated unrealistically for the amount of work needed?
It happens without unions too, just means that people end up working 18 hour days, 7 days a week.

@William.
Unions. A mixed blessing. Our union at the theatre stops us working on Sundays or before 8am, meaning we have to work harder and faster to get jobs finished. I've gone freelance to get away from the union, I can make more money as a carpenter that way. They can definitely restrict progress. On the other hand, the lack of union support has often meant my Girlfreind, an actress, gets fucked over by directors.
