Reply back that you can't make it because you are working that day.

Can anyone link me to why they are actually striking? I heard on the news that they are upset they are having to work so much overtime. This cannot be the only reason right? Aren't these guys hourly workers? Offshore, all majors have very strict rules on the amount of time you can work. Shell for instance says no more than 16 hours straight and must have 8 hours off and then if you want to go over 21 days you need to get a variance from the OIM. I just can't imagine that they would be working everyone to death at these plants.
