Tomorrow I'm supposed to have another important meeting.

Tomorrow I'm supposed to have another important meeting. I'm using the conditional because there's a 'general strike' involving schools, public transport, etc., and it risks causing problems for the people I'm meant to meet as well.
This means I won't know whether the appointment is confirmed or not until tomorrow morning.I've always been in favor of the right to strike. But when a strike happens at the end of May, on a Friday, right before a long weekend - as often happens - I can't help but suspect it's more about extending the holidays than supporting the actual cause, which ultimately undermines its true meaning.

@stefano Have these strikes resulted in improved conditions for the workers in the past? If so, then it's worth the inconvenience. If not, then why have them?

@stefano Strike again? Oh, you have those pretty often.. Are you sure you're not a part of France these days?

@fast_code_r_us no, never. Or, better, not if led this way. That's why I'm disappointed.

@pkotrcka_1 Oui!

@stefano @pkotrcka_1 They have to do it the Samsung way. Just read about the compensation for not holding a strike.

@stefano Is the strike national or restricted to your city/region?

@xenotar national. but it won't probably have a big impact, it seems.
