In Baja Mexico people did something similar. The government put tolls on the only road between two cities. for tourists and expats the toll was no problem. But for locals it was really expensive. So the locals took over the toll booths. They collected donation to support the community but otherwise... no tolls were being taken.
A new rival bus line Megurin began operating on April 27 with some routes overlapping those of Ryobi and offering a cheaper fare.
As a result, Ryobi drivers are feeling threatened and are asking management for improvements to their job security under the added competition. It would seem Ryobi was less than enthusiastic to accommodate and a strike was declared.
They continued with their routes because they felt protecting their image and relationship with their passengers was crucial while still sending a message to management.

Smart way of harming your employer but not turning the public against you. Hell they might even like you for saving them money.
