Black Wednesday, Part 2

Just when I thought things couldn't get worse then they already were today, they got worse. I just hung up the phone after talking to my friend/department head/company president/COO informing me that the factory voted 168 to 8 against their contract. Yes, you read that right -- against. In a nutshell, this means that next week the factory could be on strike and yours truly will be working out on an assembly line. Yep, things just got worse.
