How are you preparing for Friday's general strike? (January 23, 2026)

I want to ensure I am not forcing someone else to work.

I am arranging PTO, shifting hours earlier in the week, and getting errands done by Thursday. Also, asking people how they are getting ready to remind people it is happening.

Making sure I get a full tank of gas the day before is my biggest one.
