Have to agree with Garak here, all exploted workers should #strike, if the withdrawal of their labour disrupts the "economy" then clearly their contribution is important and their demands should be heard.

@Lamhfada I work in retail. when the "lockdowns" started, we never closed. and I was even given a legal document to carry with me at all times incase I got stopped by police so they would let me thru cause i was an "essential" worker.

yet, i never saw any sort of pay raise. not even so much as hazard pay, despite risking the lives of myself and my family.

I certainly wasn't treated as essential.

(lockdown in quotes cause we never had an actual one.)
