I beg to differ.  AFAIK my job is a secure as any in this current (pre April
98) climate, which is as good as we can expect.  I am not part of any Union,
I am employed as part of a small company, on a mutually agreed Salary (I
have not an Idea where the award stands in relation to my position).  Other
people I know would also fail to loose their jobs after the destruction of
this union.  Currently the union membership rate as a percentage of Full
Time employment is at an all time low (around 1 in 4 [ABS 1996]).  The
majority of us are surviving quite well without any union involvement thank
you.
