Sooo. . . . any info on what is going on with Gulf Air Trade Union?

On Tuesday they said they would be on strike today (Thursday):

Gulf Daily News » Local News » Airline employees threaten to strike

Then on Wednesday they said they were actually organizing a sit-in (what exactly is a "sit in"?) during their Lunch hour break and denied that they were organizing a strike:

Gulf Daily News » Local News » Gulf Air union plans HQ sit-in

I understand that less than 1500 of GF's 5000 employees are members of GATU. I am wondering in what area of staffing the membership is significant and what effect a full-fledged strike by GATU would have on the airline?
