la grève

My (very French) French professor ran into the classroom about two minutes after class was supposed to start.

In her husky, heavily accented voice, she breathed, "Ah, I am late.  I am so sorry."  She then pursed her lips and scowled and quickly added, "No.  I am not sorry; I should be on strike!"

It was the most French goddamn thing I've ever heard.
