It is a good negotiating tool, but it also means if we vote down the contract, we will go on strike. We do not “go back to the table”, we strike. Of course negotiations will resume as soon as we strike. If you have not been through a strike before, you need to be prepared to be out of work for about 3 weeks. That’s how long it was last time. In my local, we will be without medical insurance. If I need coverage, I can purchase Cobra insurance retroactively. My point is, if the contract does not pass, a strike has financial consequences. Be prepared.</p></blockquote><p></p>
