STRIKE - a group's refusal to work in protest against low pay or bad work conditions. While driving to work yesterday...came upon this scene! These guys where striking...most likely due to some work related issue. It was a spur of the moment shot, from my car...so the quality is a bit grainy...but I think it kinda adds to the mood a bit! I cropped a bit to get some "stuff" outta the way! L8r! Joe

That really is a cool shot Joe...... seems a bit overly compressed though.... in any case appropriate mascot for them to choose? LOL!

I am, therefore I create.......

Hi Chelle!

I think shooting this thru my car windshield at 25+ MPH & cropping probably had alot to do with the quality as well! I was actually going to try and reshoot them today (BUT) it's raining and the RATPACK was not out! I may get the NERVE to park and actually ask to take some pix...but I don't know how to approach it? When people are on strike they are not it the best of moods!

Good spotting! Ask them - they can only say yes or no. Or take offense and beat you up. or steal your car. or both. And run up $100's on your mobile phone. and set fire to your car to keep warm. and take out your furry dice before hand and wee-wee on them.

But they'll probably say yes. Some protestors a few years back did to me, and I got some good shots from it.

ROFL@Mike!! Man, this is encouraging!!! O_o
Cool entry Joe! Work is definitely a big social issue since so many can't find any or do find one but get ripped off!
