When you like your profession, your job you still do for money. Otherwise you'd be playing with similar things at home to much more satisfaction.

So here I won't agree and say that tech needs unions. Union pressure would solve the problem of labor organization and on-job education, so that they wouldn't be shit at their jobs.

Skill and such things are practically important for scientists, maybe.
