Hi All, I'm again perhaps naive but I find myself having to explain over and over to the "public" why we're striking. Seems that more folks than you can imagine are uninformed. And just as maddening is the fact that so many people out there are misinformed and think we're getting paid despite the strike! I explained to quite a few yesterday that we weren't on "paid holiday". A university lecturer was very surprised and told me that while they're on strike, they're still getting paid! She also informed me that they have a strike fund!
