maybe city wide

2018-03-18 20:29:11 UTC  

it is in the UK, where I am.

2018-03-18 20:29:23 UTC  

Oh but buy is talking about the US

2018-03-18 20:29:25 UTC  

There is a nationwide strike going on in the UK as we speak.

2018-03-18 20:29:30 UTC  

Nobody has been fired.

2018-03-18 20:29:42 UTC  

Because of snow I assume?

2018-03-18 20:30:00 UTC  

No, lecturers are striking and university staff across the country.

2018-03-18 20:30:07 UTC  

For what reason?

2018-03-18 20:30:16 UTC  

That is because US is brainwashed sadly

2018-03-18 20:30:19 UTC  

Pension plans are being altered to put pensions in the stock market.

2018-03-18 20:30:33 UTC  

I see.

2018-03-18 20:30:45 UTC  

Public workers striking is literally illegal in several states

2018-03-18 20:31:10 UTC  

That's why I think a lot will be fired if they were on a strike

2018-03-18 20:31:17 UTC  

West Virginia had a state wide teacher strike though recently

2018-03-18 20:31:19 UTC  

If it was nationwide

2018-03-18 20:31:21 UTC  

No one fired

2018-03-18 20:31:30 UTC  

that's in west virginia

2018-03-18 20:31:33 UTC  

not nationwide

2018-03-18 20:31:41 UTC  

thats statewide

2018-03-18 20:31:43 UTC  

Yes

2018-03-18 20:32:09 UTC  

I'd assume a lot of people would probably get fired if it was nationwide but that would depend on how long the strike is

2018-03-18 20:32:14 UTC  

If the work force is having a nation wide strike who are you going to hire?

2018-03-18 20:32:33 UTC  

Teachers striked for a week and a half

2018-03-18 20:32:37 UTC  

It was great

2018-03-18 20:32:38 UTC  

Nobody. They'd fire the ones working and not fire the ones who arent working

2018-03-18 20:32:49 UTC  

Oh for only a week and a half

2018-03-18 20:32:54 UTC  

then I doubt they'd get fired

2018-03-18 20:33:09 UTC  

Teachers

2018-03-18 20:33:11 UTC  

Dont see what's great about teachers striking

2018-03-18 20:33:30 UTC  

They can't afford to live

2018-03-18 20:33:31 UTC  

Higher ed workers are too valuable to fire.

2018-03-18 20:33:42 UTC  

Many can

2018-03-18 20:33:44 UTC  

And state chooses not to fund it

2018-03-18 20:33:50 UTC  

Then you're deluded.

2018-03-18 20:34:02 UTC  

So they're not too valuable?

2018-03-18 20:34:09 UTC  

I personally want all my teachers to live paycheck to paycheck

2018-03-18 20:34:11 UTC  

Many can afford to live

2018-03-18 20:34:36 UTC  

but if the state doesnt fund them much then no wonder the education system is fucked there

2018-03-18 20:34:46 UTC  

They went on strike because increasing costs

2018-03-18 20:34:53 UTC  

And yes education system is fucked

2018-03-18 20:35:02 UTC  

And we are brainwashed to not strike
