Or he's quite capable of negotiating his own salary. I personally agree; I don't want a unionized job. It doesn't work for me. It's a net benefit on average, but I'm an aggressive negotiator, and I out-earn my industry, and I know how to squeeze big bonuses out of my employers. So a union would have a negative effect on my ability to earn.
