8 days agoNot sure if this is the case in other countries, but universities here in Canada tend to employ unionozed workers and have a huge variety in positions. I’m a unionized groundskeeper and its an infinitely better gig than any other landscaping work I’ve done.
When searching for a union job, be mindful that many employers are anti-union and unions vary in their efficacy. Try to avoid unions that have already been castrated by bad deals, or ones that constantly have to strike for basic concessions.
When you succeed at getting a union job, I highly recommend showing up at meetings and considering a leadership role if you have the chops. A union is only as strong as its active members.
