On strike

The striking employees of Quark's

A strike or work stoppage occurred when a group of employees refused to work because they had some complaint about the working conditions that their employer was apparently unwilling to correct. Such events were often organized by unions.

In Pennsylvania in 1902 Sean Aloysius O'Brien, an ancestor of Miles O'Brien, went on strike with a group of employees, refusing to open the mine until their demands were met. (DS9: "Bar Association")

Strike was one of the words Miles O'Brien used due to his infection of the aphasia virus. (DS9: "Babel")

In 2372, Rom led a strike of the employees of Quark's (including the waiters and dabo girls) calling themselves the Guild of Restaurant and Casino Employees. During the strike, Brunt had Quark beaten up by a pair of Nausicaans. (DS9: "Bar Association")

In 2375, Miles O'Brien suggested that Janel Tigan might be under pressure by the Orion Syndicate, given the sudden work stoppages, one of the Syndicate's tactics for extortion of money from legitimate businesses. (DS9: "Prodigal Daughter")
