My impression is that most women public service workers have a long fuse. Precisely because they care so deeply about services, more than anyone, they still want to find a sensible and fair negotiated agreement. But their patience has run out.

  • -- Frances O'Grady 秘书长奥格雷迪

我的印象是,大多数的女性公共服务工作者都是脾气暴躁的。正是因为他们比任何人都更关心服务,所以他们仍然希望找到一个合理和公平的谈判协议。但他们的耐心已经耗尽。
