Day 14 of CUPE local 79 strike: I am starting to get bored...

I really enjoyed the first couple of weeks, since I regarded being on strike as a sort of "unpaid vacation".

Now, however, as we lumber towards the end of the third week, the honeymoon is over. I don't know what it is CUPE leadership are smoking, but I want some of it. Banking sick days instead of having short-term disability insurance is bullshit.

I think it is the 'old guys', that show up for every vote, and have Joe Hill up the wazoo, that have led CUPE 79 to this bad place.
