Strike Strike Strike!

Brain's intense negotiations with Neck to end the week long strike have broken down with Neck extending their strike action.

A Neck's spokesman said that the compromised as offered by Brain falls far short of Neck's demands.

"We have been putting in very long hours to support Brain's activities, and yet Brain does nothing to relieve us. Instead, Brain not only reduces our rest time but worsens our workload by sitting still in front of the computer screen."

Firm supporters of Neck's strike action, Back and Eyes, have echoed the same sentiments.

"We are also considering joint strike action if the situation does not improve." said a visibly fatigued Back representative. "This will show management that they can't just sit on us and take things for granted anymore."

A rather red-looking Eye's spokesman broke down into tears before he could comment.

When asked to comment on Neck's decision to extend the strike action, Brain could only issue a written statement - stating that they are well aware of the issues and that they are taking steps to alleviate the workload, including the use of temporary relief measures and a slew of work incentives. However, the more permanent relief measures can only take place over the next few months.
