Petitions don't work and gives a false sense of hope

Sick of those organisations who decide to start a petition every time there's a change that affects the industry. Stop being fake and optimistic. Petitions is not the solution to our problems. We need ACTION and STRATEGY and good LEADER. That we lack. We don't have a union (i think we do but not many members and they don't do anything). We got money-hungry governing bodies like PSA, The Guild who have ridiculous membership fees and they don't really fight for our benefits.

At times when needed, they come up with this wondrous solution, namely a petition, grab our names and our signatures then end of story. No follow-up, no solution. Change goes ahead. Because you know why? The change went ahead without our consultation, so why would a petition of our say change their mind?

Be realistic. Petitions just don't work. Gives fake hope and its a form of action that those organisations do just to fake their concern. They don't give a crap about us.

Don't waste your time signing it. I'm not.
