    Right after Covid ended, the nurses in the NYC hospitals decided that after being so heroic for over a year, they deserved raises, and some other benefits. The hospitals flat-out refused anything.

    The nurses went on strike. Within 72 hours, every single one of their demands was met, including a fat raise.
