A strike in 2372 by the staff of Quark's bar on Deep Space 9, organised by Rom in defiance of Ferengi law, which won better pay and ended with Rom leaving for a Bajoran engineering post.
The Ferengi labour strike is the subject of the Deep Space Nine episode Bar Association. When Quark cuts wages during a slow month, and after Rom collapses at work because he has no time off to see a doctor, Rom forms a union, the Guild of Restaurant and Casino Employees. Unions are forbidden to Ferengi, so this is a serious crime.
The strike empties the bar. Quark tries holographic waiters, Benjamin Sisko presses him to settle, and the dispute causes quarrels among the station's officers. The Ferengi Commerce Authority then sends Liquidator Brunt with Nausicaan enforcers, who beat Quark himself to frighten his brother.
Quark privately grants every demand on condition that the union is dissolved, so that Brunt will think the strike has collapsed. Rom then resigns anyway and joins the station's maintenance crew, the beginning of his career as an engineer.
