[QUOTE="olroadbeech, post: 1709390, member: 52145"] the best thing I learned about the strike was that this job could go away in a heartbeat and I better be prepared. I ramped up my savings and investments so I could pay off my house 13 years early and retire 6 years early. so in that regard the strike helped me. unfortunately I also learned that most of my coworkers don't have much of a backbone. all the whining and crying in the second week of the strike. I sincerely believe that if the company had held out for another week or two , the teamsters would have caved. maybe not true on the hardcore Northeast but true out here in the west. [/QUOTE]
