Anyone ever been on strike? How was it?
Our contract expired April 1 this year and we are now in a legal strike position as of 12:01am this friday. Management is preparing for a full blown battle to the death from what it appears. They are meeting today and tomorrow and if no agreement is reached they apparently have everything planned to flip the switch at midnight tomorrow night and lock us out.
From what I understand, the key areas are increased workloads on workers, lack of support from management, not enough sick time(which I don't understand because I still had a week of sick time left to use at the end of last year that I had to give up)
