[QUOTE="rod, post: 233899, member: 5382"] I went through 2 strikes. Also a one day "work stopage" sometime in the late 70's or early 80's. That one day thing was caused by the powers that be balking at paying off on a death benefit for a young kid that had accidently hung himself. I"m pretty sure it was just a regional thing. I had always saved for a rainy day so the strikes didn't have much effect on me other than being a big party. We also had many many donations of beer, pop, water, food and money. During both strikes we had a big army tent set up across the street from the center complete with cots, tv, strereo, refrigerator, freezer for ice, 5000 watt generator and 2 port-a-pots. We barbecued every day. If I could have convinced my wife to get 2 jobs a could of lived in that tent a long time. :) [/QUOTE]
