sympathy strike

Read a random definition: exposure of person

A quick definition of sympathy strike:

A sympathy strike is when workers who are not directly involved in a labor dispute go on strike to show support for other workers who are. It's like saying, "We stand with you and won't work until your demands are met." It's a way for workers to show solidarity with each other.

A more thorough explanation:

A sympathy strike is a type of strike where union members who do not have a grievance against their own employer stop working to show support for another union that is involved in a labor dispute. This is done to put pressure on the employer to meet the demands of the striking union.

For example, if the workers at a factory are on strike, the workers at a nearby warehouse may also go on strike to show support for their cause, even if they do not have any issues with their own employer.

This type of strike is also known as a solidarity strike.

UTA did that to me too

Always feels like a money grab. Like they want you to have UTA in their mind rent free

Literally. Like why would I transfer to a school where I was already at their medians
Above median gpa , at median lsat. Rejected and told to transfer? Out ur mind

Do not expect rejections from target schools
Getting waitlisted at safeties
Just annoying
Yeah wake forest hurt my feelings for sure LOL. Above both medians and the WL that said, also we have no money

@llama I find that article sort of contradictory. If every starts lateral-hiring there would quickly be a wide gap in available talent that needs correcting which would lead to surges in entry-level hiring, especially by the time we graduate

@SailingSomewhere: 10 ppl move up a ladder rung/ 10 players lateraling musical chairs, sore there are more moves, but does that mean there are more realistic openings? Asking because I see your point but at the same time, moving jobs is part of the new culture, I think the avg person will have 4? careers, and statistically the best way to employee max is to move every 2-5 years. I am unsure as I have never worked as an attorney, nor do I have direct knowledge or connections that could confirm or deny besides for saying ymmv/ each takes a dif path.
