My office just sent out a message saying the elevator union workers are going on strike tomorrow and all elevators will be shut down.

I think it puts panic into the general public and pressure onto the elevator companies to come back to the bargaining table. If anything I have more respect for elevator workers now, they keep shit moving.

That's definitely how I hope it's taken by the general public!

It looked like a sign that management had posted in solidarity with the elevator companies rather than with the workers themselves, so I figured it was meant to be taken cynically.
