Zombie Town

Is anything happening in the strike at the Hardisty nursing home? We see the ads slamming the owners. We see the people picketing. Are new clients still moving into the place? This strike is affecting a group of people you may never have thought of: People who live in the vicinity of this institution. They no longer have the quiet enjoyment of their homes. The problem is the drivers who one resident says honk like maniacs in support of the strikers. I’m hearing about noise from 7 in the morning to 7 in the evening. That means no nap, no relaxation, no break. Some work the night shifts and walk around like zombies for lack of sleep. Children are getting agitated. Pets are running wild or hiding. That’s what I’m being told. One asks, “How long will this go on?” He’d like to follow a driver home and then honk outside his house for twelve hours and see how he likes it, but he’s afraid he’d end up sitting in the back of a police car. So often, strikes affect people on the perimeter who do not deserve the aggravation. Maybe if we just wave instead of honking. Let me know what you think.
