Sometimes it’s not the job that’s a dream — it’s the benefits. Younger generations have been taught to view “dream jobs” as those that reflect passion and fulfillment, not just a 9-to-5. Yet even if the job itself is not your dream, sometimes it’s the benefits that make it a dreamy proposition. And those benefits — like health insurance and a pension — are far more likely to come with union jobs. But with the levels of unionization falling across the board in America, benefits can be hard to come by. Unless, that is, you work on the railroad. |
