Additional Info: I work in an area where corporate optometry rules the industry. Private optometrists are becoming more and more rare and it looks as if the same trend is beginning in many other places. State laws to prevent optometrists from being employed by corporations may not be the answer as ultimately the OD chooses to sign the lease without negotiating. The high cost of our education is also partly to blame, but as long as people are willing to pay the fees for school then they (schools) will continue to rake the money in. A union may be a good idea but it would probably be best to organize it through the AOA since it is an already established network
We should start a union to stop these corporations from controlling our fees, hours, etc. It's sad that OD's can't stand up and unite to fight for our own right to practice as we wish. Are we all just a bunch of no backbone sell outs? And its true, the AOA and our schools who continually pump on 100 OD's a year all with 150k loans are selling us out too. We need a union! Factory workers have unions to protect them against unfair corporate rule. But we don't. Why is that?
