1. What are the issue that the company and the union can't agree on? If they can't answer that is a red flag.
2. Can the union call a strike without giving us a contract to vote on? If the answer is yes, then you may never see what the company offer was and what the union really wanted .
3. As the one's who call for a strike, will the unions officers suffer the same financial hardships as the strikers? I'll answer that one, No. They will continue to collect their pay and benefits. They have nothing to lose if they get a strike authorization vote. They have no skin in the game.
4. Don't vote for strike authorization unless they give you the companies proposals in writing. If they hide behind a non disclosure agreement, you are going on blind faith .
Never forget 2018.
