I totally agree we have to either put up or shut up. If people within archaeology really want to affect change then joiningg a union and gaining control over our collective destiny's is the first step! For the price of a pint a week people you can get the support and backing needed to change the quality of your working life, simply join a union. Any union you prefer. Many people are already members of prospect, those in LA's unison - I am member 40177331 of T&G Unite. I also have the support there when needed and in turn shall give my help to my colleagues when called to do so (sudden flashes of Kirk Douglas in Sparticus for some weird reason!). Will the rest of you out in BAJR-land and beyond join us!
