So if a volenteer can do a job better then a 'trained professional' should the volenteer get the job over said 'trained individual' so then they are not volenteers. Would that be a solution and thus limiting the work of 'trained professionals'.
Or would it be better to have volenteers that are not paid led by professionals.
Also how many volenteers are there? Many of the volenteers work locally or are students trying to gain experience, or from the ones I have me retired folks with an intrest, and most volenteers volenteer in the summer months when they are on breaks, I dont hear of people going 'you know what I think I will quit my job and go work for free on an archaeological site'.
As I have said volenteers have there role to play and if some are good enough to work on site so be it, they wont cost anyone jobs as they do not cost any money so do not draw on company funds.
Just out of curiosity has anyone lost out to a volenteer or know of anybody that has ot would be interesting to know.
May god go with you in all the dark places you must walk.
