Is it better to skip work entirely or go and just goof off? Probably the former?
No call no show sends a stronger message if you’re privileged enough to be able to do that. If not, call in sick. Or go-slow all day. Do what you can.
My European mind can’t comprehend this. Strikes are a right for every single worker, even the most unprivileged ones (with very few exceptions for public safety reasons)
Where in Europe? General strikes are illegal in Germany
I’m from Italy. Here general strikes are common. I know that France also goes strong on strikes.
I’m surprised they’re illegal in Germany. You should fight to change that.
People who can strike should also go to places of work that people can’t and contribute to sit-ins and slowdowns.
Depends where you work, I suppose.
