[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 1707548, member: 52978"] I walked the picket lines about 10 or 11 days straight. And let's just say I was getting pressure from home about my choices. That $50.00/week strike pay wasn't going very far and it was delayed on top of that. Some of our union competitors were hammered with volume, and the union offered work, and I took it. It was delivering packages for consolidated. I think I worked 2 days and the strike was settled. They had offered OTR work to California with team drivers, but I had an idea the strike wasn't going to last long, and I didn't want to be thousands of miles away when the call came to go back to work.
