It's some of the 20-25year guys that worry me. Kids, mortgage, child support, kids college and all that other over spending because they feel secure because of seniority.
All I keep hearing from them is "I" can't afford to strike. How "we" need to take the contract because we are still getting raises.

Millenials have a different set of values, and the next generation will be even different than them... we can complain about it all day long. But it aint going to change anything.
They are willing to get a lower top rate quicker than waiting a little longer to get a higher top rate.

No, none of us got fired, it was just a show to try to scare us to go back to work. The Coke guy whos handcart full of sodas got tipped over by on of our picketers when he crossed the picket line..well, he happened to do it while the local news was filming a story. So he came close to losing his job. BA made him publicly apologize and was none too happy the had it on film.

Yep, I've seen millenials walk right off the preload and quit just because. If they have to go work at MCDs instead they will, they just dont seem to value a job as importantly. Its no big deal to them.
Gotta start somewhere.

Sisyphus had it easy.
Did not work out well for the 3 who did at my building in 97.
I would bet a lot of people would cross right away. Others would cross in two days and by the first week you would understand how weak the membership is. After this happens the we are done.
I remember that we had very few who crossed in 1997. I don’t see that happening now a days.
We had none in 97.
Can't guarantee what would happen today.
