Ian,

No way, unions make you work somewhere forever to get a raise....and they 
start you out on the bottom.   They have silly rules.  Employers can aren't 
all good, but the bottom line is if you're needed, you can do tons better 
negociating on your own.  Because histologists are in demand, we have the 
upper hand in negociations.  There is no way I'd be making as much I do 
being for 25 years old and not being in the field for 30+  years if I were 
working somewhere where unions were the rule.
