    I don't think the unions will survive this time. They're screwing themselves.
    AND I WILL be taking advantage of the low beer and steak prices at ALL STORES INVOLVED!!
    Yeah, thats right....its all about ME!! LOL!!

    I hope they don't go into a strike again.............it was so harmful to so many last time.......people found plenty of alternatives for shopping so consumer impact was low other than not being quite as convenient....
    Some of the shoppers never returned and stayed with the new alternative source they found.

    The workers aren't looking at the big picture.
    40 hours/week @ $17.90 hr.
    $716 week before taxes.
    If the strike lasts 8 weeks - half the time of the last one - $5728 in lost wages.
    Assume this results in a 5% bump or $35.50 per week increase.....
    It would only take 161 weeks or over 3 years to recoup:idea: :sqeyes:
    Dont forget to add in that they still have to pay their union benefits while not receiving their salary as well.

    If they do strike, and you find your self needing to cross the picket line, and the "employees" harass you, just remind them that if their not happy with their current package, the local Wal Mart is hiring!

    Last time there was a strike and they hired a bunch of cute girls at the ralphs where I live. Plus everyone was sooooo much nicer to deal with than the regular grumpy workers.
