Board Game Cafe Workers Went on a Quest for a Union and Won

Workers said pay was low and staffing was inadequate. Some described frantic scenes at birthday parties or tournaments that they had to oversee alone. Dungeon masters, who facilitate games, often did hours of unpaid prep work.

If you were to tell me that Dungeon Masters are going to unionize because they’re not getting paid for prep work, I would have asked you what planet you’re from. DnD was an after-school hobby that was anything but work.

Happy for them though. It’s an important role (har har) and a good occupation 🎲
