Wow, that is an extremely specific example; and you expect it to be in the collective agreement? Does their collective agreement mention me by name? Because I have crossed the border.

While understand the guards being upset about not being armed, by them walking off the job with a slightly higher than usual risk they put 100's of other civilians at risk. How would buddy who was armed have reacted when he saw a couple of kilometres of cars blocking his path to "freedom." If was indeed so dangerous, it could have been a disaster.
