Are strikes common in your country? - GoFuckYourself.com

In Israel strikes happen very often. I'd say at least twice a year on average there is a major workers strike in many fields. It can be airport workers, school teachers, even hospitals...

Right now there is a major strike at schools and universities. Nobody even knows when they will be finished. They always decide to stop it during night negotiations.

I'm just wondering, is it only fucked up this way here, or is it also common where you live?

Every month there are a dozen of strikes here

mortenb · 04-11-2007, 10:06 AM

Mostly busdrivers and trash guys strike here.. But it seems like they do it every 5-6 months..

Have a look at today's France, espesially Paris. Too mane strikes.

Yes, it seems like our athletes go on strike every once in a while to fight the MAN from keeping them down.

We're mostly into airstrikes right now.

Very, very common... These lazy fucks will strike at the drop of the hat. It's usually a big deal too, they'll get marching bands and bring their kids and make a parade out of it.

Makes me wish I owned a bulldozer.

We used to get them once in a while back in hickville, North Idaho. The saw mill workers would decide they needed more money, better benefits, ect. to pay for their new trucks, mudder tires, booze and what have you.

Great part was, that the mills were one by one closing during the time I was there. So the guys would go on strike, and sit around collecting a little bit of strike pay from the union, only to get a tiny raise. So they would lose six months of pay to gain a buck an hour.

The mean time, the sawmills would just ship the logs out to other mills, or whole out to Asia.

Talk about ass backward thinking. Striking for more pay, when your industry is dying isn't too bright.

I personally think unions in the united states are a detriment to the marketplace, and have outlived their usefullness in most cases.

I can't speak for what that circumstance was all about, but often pay strikes are because workers have been shafted for years over pay rises, then they strike, then they get their little % increase, only to find the company/govt shafts the figures for the year and say they can only pay x% of that % increase, and so the vicious circle continues

we have one-two strikes every year, but they all must end very soon, because all the people could stay without work. they never have any real results. workers are the last shit here.

sniperwolf · 04-11-2007, 06:06 PM
