I know the blog seems to be obsessed with Strikes at the moment, but they are a big part of whats going on with me at the moment! Between asking you what you think of crossing pickets to my teachers going on strike its time that I decided what I am going to do about the strike at Boots.
I have talked to a few friends about this and teachers about my predicament and everyone acknowledges the predicament I am in. I have some suggestions, such as calling in sick during the strike to just plain cross the picket.
So I have decided.
As I am a part time worker on a temporary contract, on this occassion I will be crossing the pickets. I need the hours, basically I need the money. I think the full time union members will appreciate these facts and there will not be hassle with me ducking the picket line, if there is one when I am working.
Oh if only life was easy!

I think the unions understand the unique difficulties of those on part-time/temporary contracts, so there shouldn’t be any hassle. I would, however, liaise with the strike committee to avoid any misunderstandings!
David, If i know who is on the strike commitee, I will try and talk to them, but only if they around when I am working.
