Perhaps the director should take a pay cut?

Im fucking furious that this might affect this gig. It has taken a lot of planning and is for a very good cause. I can imagine that a lot of people wont make it because of the strike. Dont get me wrong, I am not directly blaming the drivers, its just frustrating.

Why? Seriously, I don't actually know what the problem is. Why are they striking?

To be honest, I don't know the full details of the strike, all I know is that it's over pay or something like that. Everyone's entitled to strike and all that, just wish I had other means of getting about.

There's talk of the management organising some "scab" labour, but I wouldn't expect anything other than a skeleton service.
