Strike
I've made it a rule to never write about work. Now it's time to break that rule.
This is an advance written post. (Yeah, blogger now does those)
Right now I am walking off the job to protest the fat profits that are being made by the company, how lesson prices have gone up and yet wages have remained the same.

As someone planning to live the rest of his life in this fantastic country, I realize that I can't just accept the status quo. Things are not fair and something needs to be done about it.
To any of my students reading this post, sorry but it needs to be done.

I agree--more of this needs to be done. Just don't let yourself get in trouble over it.
nahh, I'm protected.
It was a busy day for strike action today, many people walking off!
The article in JT was interesting. Is that executive still with the company?
Good luck!
Let us know how it works out.
@Thomas
Yes, he still is.
@Billywest
Thanks, I will!
Aren't you worried your employer might see your blog?
There are bigger fish to fry than me. Besides, there are no rules against blogging about the company.
And I think the newspaper coverage is far more damaging than a timed post about when I went on strike.
