...we've (the building) been picketed. It was a very surreal experience. The janitorial staff for our whole set of buildings (which are basically 'luxury' office buildings, as they put it - not really what I would call luxury, but certainly nice, anyway) is protesting because they want benefits.
But...they're walking around pounding on 'drums' made from janitorial buckets, carrying a white-on-purple banner reading "Justice For Janitors", and chanting rhythmically, led by a guy with a megaphone. (Sorry, on the third floor inside, I can't tell WHAT they're chanting....)
Actually, I think they should have benefits. But their march is still surreal and somewhat amusing. It looked more like a parade than a protest; they simply (as best I could tell) circled each building once, then marched off across the street to protest there. There are a number of buildings in the area; are they planning to go to them all?
