We are "deeply embedded" into the local city here at multiple levels, so moving isn't an option.

However, the city moved on without skipping a beat. The strike is now on it's third week and it seems everything is working as normal. Seems to me that our city employees have been replaced and for the most part, no one noticed a thing.

I found it funny this past weekend that some of my neighbors were unaware that a strike was taking place. Their garbage is still being picked up so they didn't notice anything wrong.
