    Go get them Union!

    The last sentence in this article betrays your unthinking prejudice as well as your poor phraseology. I wonder if such a riposte would have been added if the management were to have organised such a survey. It would be interesting to know whether IBM ever advertise on The Register, presumably Alliance@IBM doesn't!
