I do agree that what the unions did at the convention center was a fiasco. I work in union atmospheres and have never run across that type of uncooperativeness at other places. But in the entertainment business unions are necessary to make it possible to earn a living. Otherwise, companies like MTV and Disney will use non professionals (students, interns, fame seekers) to do professional work. The catch is that these non professionals are training for jobs that don't exist because they already are the replacements for the professionals.
