Scando, I sympathise and I understand. I'm tired of all the naive do-gooders' opinions regarding industrial action. There are many people in many industries who are now getting shafted to the maximum - only to see the managers walking off into the sunset with their bonuses, leaving the carnage of their incompetence behind them. It seems to be going the same way where I work. I think we're going to see a lot more industrial unrest in the coming months/years if current management principles remain in force.
To those of you affected by industrial disputes, don't blame the strikers, blame those in charge.
