Yes, I often congratulate myself on having chosen a profession that does NOT require the services and/or meddlesome interference, depending on the case, of a labor union, thank you very much. Fortunately for me, I have no need of a labor union to work. I can work just fine without a labor union, unlike the unfortunate workers of the automobile and/or car industry, who are bound by labor union rules. That might also have been true of those who worked in the canneries of California in long past generations, but Cannery Row was more recently transformed into a fancy shopping center, so obviously the cannery rules no longer apply.
