   Hi Murdock. I thought old Margaret Thatcher tightened things up enough that strikes would hardly ever happen. Do you mean how you deal with your mates who are on strike and should you strike yourself? Please tell us more, but obviously the above options are something to think about, but getting a beer as got to be a good idea :)

   the best way to deal with a strike at work when you can not loss money Get another job.. its not that easy Sure it is! Are you disabled? Blind? Paraplegic? I see people with Down Syndrome working in customer oriented businesses every day! I have no pity for someone who says they can't find a Job. Maybe it isn't the job that you want or the pay that you want but there is always jobs to be had out there. A person has responsibility and must maintain that. You have bills that need to be paid so do not let your pride interfere with earning the money to pay them. In 1990 I had lost my Drivers license and all the Coppers in the area knew it. Every time I got behind the wheel to go to work, the bastards would pull me over and give me a ticket. After about $5,000.00 in tickets (no points, they were cool about that) I conceded defeat and got a job almost 5 miles from my house and rode a bicycle to it. Where'd I find work? McDonald's!! I was closing the place at night, cleaning and repairing for $9.50/Hr. Hey, I did what I had to do to pay my bills and support my family. It was embarrassing at first, but the more people that saw me and knew me, the more respect I received. Not because of who I was and my reputation in the area, but because I stepped up to the plate and assumed the responsibility of paying my bills....I did what I had to do to earn a living!
