If there was an IT workers union with presence in my state I would absolutely do the same, though to be fair I could probably just take a week off that might not end until the owner class comes humble to the table.

Might be worth your while to look into Locals in your area that aren't necessarily IT focused unions. Some unions (like the Teamsters and others) will still help you organize under their union even though they typically represent workers in a specific industry. I don't have an office workers union local in my neck of the woods, but I've been giving it some thought as well.
