- buboard 6y agothanks, i always wondered how these work. so people would normally walk out of the office, and go home? Do they walk down the stairs instead of taking an elevator? How far out do they walk? What if it's raining out? Would they answer emails before leaving? would they leave after lunch? do they leave all together? Do they use corporate buses to go home? I feel these are important subtleties
- idlewords 6y agoThe key point is that a typical walkout is a public act where you leave work and then demonstrate. It is a situation where people can see you and where you can see the other people walking out with you. You can even do things like picket or articulate demands! This is... not that.
