Why is this exactly, as I'm struggling with this one? Surely, you're either on strike or you're not! You can't toddle in to do your promotion course, thereby protecting your future higher earnings, whilst expecting everyone else to sacrifice their staff travel and stand around on a picket line.

I assume the rule must be a union one, but then again that doesn't make sense either as someone who asked whether they should attend their SEP's was told no they shouldn't.

So which is it?
