    I think with professional-managerial type jobs like ours, we have knowledge that the employers consider valuable and if you’re effective in the role you’re pretty much able to find a good job, like you have that bargaining chip. That doesn’t mean that will always be the case but for now it’s pretty good, especially in certain countries. For “replaceable” jobs or ones that involve physical labor and safety the unions are a lot more necessary, especially industrial unions.
