Really, I’d love to strike, but I can’t

It’s always interesting to see the impact of domestic laws on people from other countries. I’ve experienced some of those laws myself, in Germany and the Czech Republic. I’ve also experienced them through my clients in my work doing employment-based immigration.
Notwithstanding all of that, it’s still kind of surreal to see it intrude upon your otherwise daily activities. In my case, that means watching the return of The Daily Show to the Comedy Channel, in particular John Oliver’s bit on the writer’s strike.

See what I mean?
