strikes for safer working conditions
and reasonable things like that are fine, but people striking because of things like pay can fuck off.

Our union wanted 8% this year
and threatened to strike if they didn't get it. I would have not only crossed the picket line to come in to work, I would have given everyone striking a slap. I agree that striking for some things is acceptable, but for others it really isn't.

Run down the line of strikers, slap them all in one go!

yeah this
it's the pay that seems to be the one they strike about most, and it really fucked me off when the BA strikers ruined Christmas for all those families by cancelling their flights.

striking
mostly affects the poor bastards who have no choice but to pay for the service and rely on it, like commuters or patients or, in this case, burning children. personally i would never ever dream of striking because i have far too much pride in and care for my clients' affairs and that takes precedence over my own concerns. so basically, if they could all be just like me, it would be great.

That and if all the lawyers went on strike no-one would care. At all.
