But this is not a union.  A union negotiates on your behalf to get 
favorable working conditions, benefits, job security, etc.  A union 
makes sure that your employer is providing you with a safe working 
environment and not mistreating you.  I have yet to see an organized IT 
shop (while they might exist, I've yet to hear of one).
