Well, we're finally done with our public workers strike--7.5% is the final offer. Sounds pretty good, except that government got 50%. At least we can all get back to work now.
On the other hand, ESCOM, one of our power companies, has officially gone on strike. When will it all end?!
If you can't afford the plane ticket, this is the next best thing!
