The kids saw the strikers outside? May be a good teaching moment so something personally positive comes out of it.
So, there were about six strikers outside, two with signs. I let the family go through because I didn’t want to cause a scene with my in-laws, and I stayed back and talked with the strikers.
They recommended we go to the Pirate Adventure dinner theater instead, and I explained the situation, and said I would donate to the strike fund. We shook hands and I went and joined the family. The strikers seemed to understand the situation.
Apparently the scabs are from other non-union Medieval Times locations (trained etc.) so the show was a “normal” show.
But still, I couldn’t enjoy myself because the guilt just was too heavy.
Donating to the strike fund was a brilliant way of evening out the impact. You weren't attending out of choice anyway but I hope your donation eases your conscience nonetheless.
