As of 12:01 am this morning my union is on strike

[tooblue]

I am beyond angry ... talks broke down last night after management gave into all of the unions demands, only to have the union demand one more thing in the last month.

For more than a year now the union has repeatadly told us the isssue was money -management gave them the money ... then for the past 6 months we were told it was about work load -management conceded on the issue of workload ... then in the last month, after receiving a strike mandate from it's members, the union demanded more teachers be hired -unbleep'n believable!

So my union goes on strike and holds the students hostage -we are just past mid-term and thounsands of students across Ontario don't know whether they will have the opportunity to finish this semester and qualify for graduation.

I would cross the picket line, but it is illegal to do so -both I and the School would incure massive fines -unbelievable ......
