Is this the walkout that was supposed to start at noon and go for an hour, which coincidentally happens to align when most everyone there has a break for lunch?
I've seen this comment made a few times but I don't get the point. It's a walk out protest not a strike. They never claimed they would stop doing their jobs. If someone doesn't understand this, that is their error, not a substantial criticism of the protest
Many dictionaries explain the definition of a walk out is a strike.
you weren't supposed to notice the similarity to, "standing around outside during your lunch hour".
