As pcf said above, sadly, that same respect isn't offered in the other direction (by everyone).

I have the utmost respect for my colleagues who have decided to go on strike because they've made a difficult decision to stand up for what they believe in.

I don't believe in the same thing this time around, which is why I went to work, but far from getting respect for making that difficult decision I've been given anonymous notes in my dropfile calling me names and I've been blanked by colleagues on a trip (only one, though.... - the majority are mature enough to recognise that we have all made a personal choice).

But while I respect the decision to strike, I lose some of that respect when those same people engage in protest marches to the Arora and bus rides around the Heathrow area.
