Ancient Egyptian Workers Strike

This is an interesting ancient Egyptian history post about how the workers building the tomb of Rameses III went on strike to demand better wages. This was likely the first labor strike in history. It was also the invention of the office “pizza party” in an attempt to pacify the workers, lol.
