You also aren’t organized, which is another good reason to not call it a strike. A strike isn’t a few workers doing how they feel like.
In America, when you strike you put up a picket line. You tell the company, this is what we want, and will do nothing for you until you meet our demands. And you do it together.
As long as you are getting paid, you can hardly call it a strike
I mean you’re still the working class. But a desk job is quite literally not labour. Labour is physical work, specifically lol
