The screen actors guild hires based on seniority? That’s why Clint Eastwood keeps playing 17 year olds…

There are plenty of unions that aren’t seniority based.



They also don't hire anyone. They are not the ones who do the hiring. Airlines it seems - for a current example - have relinquished some hiring / firing authority to union rules.


I'll listen to arguments for a developers' union that includes no seniority-based provisions but one of the biggest reasons people cite is "ageism."
