[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 5377332, member: 63706"] Just a little hazing to see how serious you are. Don't take it personally. It wasn't so much a proposal as an example of what we could do. I still get people telling me about the news stories they see about our working conditions. If The last two years have taught us anything about human psychology is that people will support anything they think everyone else supports. When someone gets upset about their order of flip flops being late due to the strike, they'll remember that video, and decline to take to Twitter to spout off about late flip flops. If they do, they'll have 100 people shouting them down for being selfish, and get tons of people posting links to the video. I disagree. The last two years have shown us that people would cut their own throats if they thought most people think they should. People will change their avatars to brown to show their support for the strike. They'll brag about how they had to wait a couple extra weeks to get their printed I support the latest thing T-shirt, and though it was very, very hard on them, they were glad to do it to show solidarity and support for the hardworking men and women who just want to not die of heat stroke.
