Median wage is meaningless against systems with long term stagnant wage growth against a rising cost of living. Strikes don't have an effect unless they disrupt something, that's why they work. If you see a minor inconvenience to your morning commute instead of a collective work for your rights as a worker then I'm not really sure where your priorities lie.

It's not a minor inconvenience to your commute when you can't get a train or a bus at all to go to work, several times a month. It makes you need to purchase a car and all the trouble that goes with it.
