I don't care if you use unless or if, but please don't use if (!).
Say if (not) instead. The looser binding makes it easier to use and
the fact that it is three letters long (rather than one skinny
character long) makes it some much easier to see.
You do realize that you just made a good argument for unless. Of
course, if you want to make the purists cringe:
if( some_condition ){
# this space intentionally left blank
}else{
do_work();
}
