While biking to the mall today, a group of about 50 people were coming at us from up ahead. They were all wearing bright pink T-shirts, the last word on them being pedego..something or other. I know enough now to know that those were daycare workers, on-strike, and out for a bike ride.
The strikers do not elicit pity from me, or camaraderie, or a feeling that they are not being fairly treated/compensated. Granted, I don't know the specifics of the strike (like how and why they feel they are not being compensated adequately, really, why are they striking this time anyway?).
But what I do know is that I don't like to see them out for a pleasant bike ride on a pleasant day.
