How can we make it more feasible for people to strike?

Title. I saw in another sub basically explaining how the commenter in an upper middle class office job takes the day off, they’ll just subtract it from his PTO and tell him to let them know in advance next time. For your average worker at Walmart, McDonald’s, etc, they can probably be fired very easily (despite any rightful protections they might have).

So, how do we introduce a sort of security for these people that might lose their jobs, so that we can get more people to participate? A large-scale mutual aid would be great for this but it doesn’t feel feasible. Obviously, local community events providing food and housing and such are good ideas but hard to standardize in anyway across the country to make them available for everyone. Does anyone else have ideas for the ways in which we can make this actually possible for everyone? We need as many people as possible to stop participating in the economy in October, and it’ll be very hard to convince the workers that have a lot on the line here.

Remember to use libraries to spread awareness

At the library you can print out things for only like 10 cents. They also sometimes have boards where you can but up flyers I think.

TRUCKERS

hi, title says it all. A majority strike would be great if we can pull it off, but if we can figure out how to convince truckers to strike, even for a short period, it would have massive ramifications for the economy!

I've done some research- tuckers have successfully striked and it led to better work conditions, but the industry is hip to this now and it is a lot harder and more dangerous to strike as a trucker.

If anyone has some ideas, or knows a trucker to help us out that old be great!

What to do if you went to help but live in another country

If you live in another country, but work for a US owned company then either go on strike or take the day off. Also don't buy anything from US owned companies.

Things to do if you can't strike:

1. Try to request the day off now and save up if you're able to

2. Make posts and leave comments about it on reddit, tik tok, Facebook, and any other social medias you have.

3. Tell EVERYONE you know about it. Don't be rude, be calm and polite when you talk about it.

4. Don't buy anything at all on the day of the strike. Stay home or do something that's free. Its about not participating in the economy at all.

5. If you live in another country but work for a business that also operates in America then got on strike. Also don't buy anything from a US based company on Oct 15.

6. Help people who are striking. Help them withe whatever they can't afford since they're missing work.

If you can think of something I missed then comment it.
