Teachers' strike

Today, some of the teachers' unions are striking. Basically, there is a government act that would require teachers to teach in other schools in their commune, and also possibly teach outside their subject area, IF circumstances required it. I had images in my head of picket lines outside the school and maybe some police around for good measure. No way. I walked into an almost empty building today. Striking? More like sleeping in.

I had one student come to my first class, basically out of kindness to tell me everyone else had gone home. I'm gonna wait around and see if the second group shows up; the professor for my third group has already told me they won't be coming.
