HI Mag,
Unions have unfortunely gone a bit corrupt. I think they where very
necessary at one time but I an not convinced of their value now. They seem
to add to beauracy and wasting time. Ideally there would be an enitity that
had no stake in what was happening - Unions have become business in their
own right - so a self interest factor end up in their. On the other hand -
how much do I know - not being union?
