Louis,
I have been posting articles about the French strike on the bulletin board
at work. The fact that it was started by rail workers has not gone
un-noticed. When I pointed out to one of my co-workers the fact that the
French rail-workers were fighting to defend rights like retirement at 50,
something we could only dream about, he responded "they should."
Something of a contrast to "what are they complaining about?" reaction I
used to hear.
Best, Jon F
