This is indeed the poin.
In a perfect world, you should not have to ask for pay rises, you should not have to ask for training. It should be part of the normal day to day - year on year - process of employment.
The current action on Unionisation is needed in todays archaeology. It can benefit all. There are indeed quite a few companies who treat all staff well - supporting training and ensuring pay and conditions move forward. Others need support and help to do so. Gentle reminders - for want of a better word.
As Misty says, in the real world (beyond Archaeology) generous pay scales and training can be achieved.
Just because one company is OK does not mean that unionisation should be ignored.... the idea is for all to be OK (or better)
