In January of 1939, the Council of People's Commissars decreed that tardiness of 20 minutes or more constituted an unauthorized absence from work. (The Economic of Forced Labor: The Soviet Gulag by Paul R. Gregory, Valery Lazarev)

Instead, Reagan showed forbearance. "State law is very explicit such a strike is illegal," the governor pointed out. Yet he treated the walkout as a case of unauthorized absence from work rather than an illegal concerted action against the state. Under California law, state employees were subject to termination after five consecutive days of unauthorized absence.
