As a Tech worker I think my job is more sophisticated, but much easier and less stressful than of an UPS driver, and I’m happy they can get a decent wage.

That’s the point of a union – people in skilled and sophisticated work can benefit from it too, but the folks whose jobs are extremely demanding but basically fungible really need a union.
