[QUOTE="Johney, post: 5298155, member: 10995"] So let me try and understand what you mean by the original post I quoted. So everyone sells back two weeks vacation to cost the company big money right? Then everyone has cash to hold them over during the strike. Yes it will cost the company money to pay out those vacations. So what if the strike goes for a month? Where does the two more weeks of income come from for striking workers? See? the company has already made money on them. Maybe where you are at people will hold out for as long as it takes, right to work states like here will not, two weeks tops and they'll be crossing in herds. Yes will it affect the company? Sure, but if I remember correctly the 97 strike lasted a tad over two weeks and by then we had a good bunch of scabs cross. Also there were a couple of locals (Chicago?) that held out longer. Company just didn't deliver there until it was settled. All I can say is good luck if you all strike you'd better hope they don't plan on ousting the union cause you all will have a hard time.
