Answer:

B - Most of the company's employees have been on strike for three days.

Step-by-step explanation:

B is the only negative answer. The employees are on strike (which means that they refuse to work for a various number of reasons).

The other answers only imply neutral connotations, either actions or a type of scoring in bowling.
