please I need your help in assessing this essay before send it\
Before two months, our hospital's staff have started a strike because we had not received a salary for those months.Many of them are from different departments,they have come daily and stayed in the Main Outpatient Hall without work,sharing photos and videos about the strike in the social networks sites by a way that enforce the owner to pay.
At those days, I have agreed with the strikers in the point that it is difficult for peoples to deal with their own personal commitments without money,and it is injustice and illegal to delay paying for us more than one month.However,I've not participated with them because I had a clear vision that is the patient care service comes first of all,and we have to continue providing medical care in this rough circumstances until we gain the payments.I felt that we will be responsible if harm happens for anybody due to stop service. Instead of an illegal strike,I thought that we have to seek for legal solutions for the problem.
In Aramco pharmacy, I was the only one from the staff who refuse this strike ,but I was very confident about the importance of my vision. So,I've discussed my viewpoint to my colleagues,and I've asked them to organize their prioritization and doing their humanitarian work.Also,I've advised them to be more patient,and I've tried to motivate them by optimism about the situation which I thought it would be overcome soon.In addition,I suggest for them an alternative legal solution by making a complaint to the labor office.Then,I've given them a good example of professionalism by following tasks regardless the poor conditions or shortage of staff.
Finally,although the situation not adjusted till now,but the service continued, and I've gained the appreciation of my supervisor and acting manager.Moreover,now I'm sure that many colleagues believe that the strike is not the right way to get their rights.
