They'll be walking the line, inconveniencing hundreds of thousands of people.
But it's not the inside or the outside unions who work - and may soon not be working - for the City of Toronto.
Instead they're members of OPSEU and they toil for the LCBO, the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. They're poised to walk out on Wednesday, just two days after CUPE workers are
expected hit the bricks in Toronto barring any last minute miracles.
The idea of no garbage collection, closed daycares and a loss of other city services, is enough to drive you to drink. But will you still be able to? The union insists it won't interfere with those trying to purchase their favourite libations, although they may try to slow you down a bit.
A spokesperson assures their goal is to inconvenience management, not the public.
The main area of dispute revolves around full time jobs. The workers are upset that the LCBO has been hiring part time workers who have little or no job security and make very low wages.
The Board insists it can't afford to keep full timers, because their business is cyclical and it leaves them with too many people at lean times of the year, an eventuality that costs them too much money.
The union voted 93 per cent in favour of strike action last month to back their demands. Both sides assure they're trying to get a negotiated agreement and that neither wants a walkout.
And most people will drink to that.
