The ones that I can't ignore are the part time army of volunteers!
They really do spoil all the good work done by the proffesionals!!

Whilst I totally agree that unsupervised volunteers are very dangerous there are huge numbers of retired, work placements, people returning to work who are interested enough to volenteer their time to the profession. Often complete the tasks that none of us would want to do, like labelling photos, archiving, pot washing.... Any attempt to push these valuable individuals out would do the profession damage. Archaeology/history after all is a public resource!

What must however, be avoided at all costs is those 'professional organisations' whom use volenteers as replacements for professionals. In my experience this tends to be a crime committed by Husband and wife teams (but still RAO!!)

long live the volenteer!! Smile
