You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
I didn't say the general public matters. Someone said they would support a strike, I simply said they won't. Not whether it would matter if they don't, though I personally think it does matter if they decide to collectively take their business elsewhere. Speaking on a personal level, my place of employment ships only through USPS and UPS. If UPS strikes, my boss will have no choice but to switch to FedEx. Chances are, she wouldn't switch back once a strike was over. That is lost business for UPS and in the long run, can hurt employees, so public support does matter, and I just don't think they will be behind a strike. That's all I'm saying. Glad you have plenty of places to fall back on, as does our family. There are many who don't, who would be hurt by a strike. If you are going to strike over a $400 deductible, you might want to do the math first. You lose way more by not working and getting a paycheck for a few weeks than by paying a small deductible.
I don't want to strike and its not really healthcare for me. I'm in central states. My benefits would actually increase. We won't strike anyway. I'd say even if its votes down the chances are less than 5% we strike.
My prob is 4 year progression part timer 50 cent raise. In general just a bunch of BS needless language. Our contract should probably be about 30 pages long not 300. The more u put in it the more loopholes u create.
I do feel sorry for employers such as yours. Your employer could try to switch to fed ex but it likely would not turn out well. They simply can't handle all the volume and many businesses would be up a creek until the strike was over.
