[QUOTE="Island, post: 1291242, member: 42417"] Their supplement says the local can call a strike any time the company won't come to the negotiation table to resolve a problem. I'm not sure if that ignores or is subject to other language in the national about giving notice, etc. etc, because the supplement is sort of vague about it. It also says that if people call a strike without the authority of a union rep or the local hall leadership then the company can fire everyone involved if the union can't or won't make them go back to work. So it really comes down to whether the local is behind the BA who called the strike. So far there's mixed signals but if they are indeed all on a working termination then I have no doubt the company is going to follow the article and slowly replace every single one of those drivers. I'd imagine it would take a couple months to hire that many drivers... and woe to the PTers, if 250 employees just went FT then you'll be waiting twenty years to get one of their jobs. [/QUOTE]
