  1. I find it interesting that the STRIKE signs were suddenly there, almost as if this was planned. Nearly every strike, these signs, sometimes hundreds, magically appear. These are planned work stoppages. I can see both sides of the camera issue, and the report said the wages are not an issue. So why not get some folks to sit and negotiate? On strike, you are not getting paid. Union leadership is, they get paid whether you are working or not.
