ATHENS, Feb 4 (Reuters) - Greek tax officials walked off the job on Thursday, kicking off a series of strikes against an austerity plan meant to pull the country out of a debt crisis that has sent shockwaves across the euro zone.
The plan, which won the European Commission's qualified backing on Wednesday, includes a wage freeze across the public sector and cuts in special allowances that make up a big chunk of civil servants' overall income.
