Is the site for sale?

Is this part of it (paying for the domain name = economic activity)? Or did something happen?

How many people participated today?

No gatherings were organized to show our numbers and every company tracks its own own call outs separately, so there's no way for anyone to know how many people participated today.

Don't expect the media to report any numbers today because there's no way for them to see how many people participated either. We didn't organize in a way that gathers attention. Companies aren't going to share how many people called out and make themselves look weak.

That being said, I do know that at least 5 people in my department called out today.

What about the rest of you here? How many participated and what were the numbers where you worked? Is this a cause worth fighting for or did we give up?

If you’re striking and not involved in more organized action, consider solo or team postering. This one’s conveniently sized to fit on half a standard A4 sheet of paper.

Media is too big

This is the most detailed mainstream media story (that I've seen) about the labor strikes occurring across the country

UTAH IS STARTING

We are kicking off our strike today with a protest at the capital! Call in sick, or leave work tell your employer you have a family emergency. Or better yet just talk to your co-workers right now, and walk out all together to join us at the capital! See you soon!

As brothers and sisters in the labor movement, we understand the struggle on the job & will honor the picket lines!

Regardless in how you feel about Dave Chappelle's anti-trans jokes, I truly bwlive we need to start striking large streaming companies. Firing a worker for protesting should be a concern for all of us.

Any strike not backed by Unions is worthless. Today was proof of that. All the strikes in the recent news are unions.

People have been trying to engrain this message since this subreddit was form but many did not want to listen.

Boycott

I feel like a boycott would have been more successful and attainable.

I say we repeat every friday until traction is gained.

Today showed that big business sees our threat. That means its time to dig in and spread awareness. Places where fridays are big profit days will be the most important!!!
