Strike Like
Maybe I’m missing something here but I don’t get why people look down on those who are striking. Apparently those who strike in order to get better working conditions are scum. It shouldn’t be that employees shouldn’t strike; it should be that employees shouldn’t need to strike, and any blame for strikes should be placed on the employer.
There’s a bit of talk around the recent strike action of those in the public sector regarding pensions. For some reason they are seen as the bad guys. For what, decided enough is enough and making a statement. That’s what a strike is, a statement. It’s a way for an employee to say No, that isn’t fair and I won’t work until it gets changed.
In theory it should lead to a better working life and relationship between Employer and Employee. But we’re such pussies about it Employers are taking employees for a ride.
Everything is planned well in advance and made to cause minimal disruption. It’s like going to war but being told not to shoot as you might hurt the enemy.
If you’re going to strike it should be a big enough statement to make your Employer shit their pants. These days striking does no more than make them sigh.
Of course there are bound to be some cases where the employees are being greedy and if that’s the case they can go fuck themselves.
Like I said earlier striking is a statement and to get your point across you have to show your intent as intensely as possible, otherwise they are just going to ignore you.
I get that the recession has made things tough but how long can you hide behind that.
Everyone is entitled to a fair workplace and if they aren’t getting one, they have the right to strike. And when they do it should be such a strong statement that the Employer is shown just how much he needs his employees.
You can’t judge someone for attempting to make their lives better.
