Concerning recent postings about the lack of jobs (or reasonably paid
ones) in museums....

Every once in a while this thread reappears on the list. While I
understand the frustration of the writers, perhaps other museum
workers are not the people to whom such concerns should be addressed?  If
you are distressed over the matter, why not
(1) look for a job in another field that will give you experience that
will serve you well when you DO find a museum position, and
(2) Organize -- send out a call to agitate for change not to Museum-L,
but to your local, state and federal legislators, corporations and
foundations.
