If we all stick together, we can get through this. I don't think crossing the picket line would help anyone. Think about if after the strike was over, how everyone would treat you. Plus the fines, it's just not worth it. I think since they'll lose business right from the get-go, they won't need all of the drivers they currently have, but is that what they really want? Less than half of their regular business? They wouldn't be able to afford golf tournaments anymore...

As to the effectiveness of a strike?

It will be the death of Oak Harbor, plain and simple. And it won't take even two weeks, mark my words...
In this economy, it would be like throwing chum in the water! The sharks would come out and eat your customers! One can only hope that your owners are bluffing, its looks like there trying to get rich, while riding the company into the ground.....................

StingRay is on a distinguished road
Default Hmmm...

After reading this tread started by LaLaLand, I have to say I really see how some Teamsters really are not teamsters. To try to attack someone whom you have no idea about is low. Try getting the facts before your make believe world sets in your train of thought and you really end up in LaLaLand. Hey, it's ok that people don't get along with me nor I have to get along with them. No problem. I like my black socks, didn't know I was there to impress you, and yea I like to work OT to pay for my new, actually over a year old now F150 FX4 4x4. It runs good. Still making payments! Also, yep, the VP's signed a check to me for hours I put in. You did too. If some of my colleagues don't like it, tuff. Harleydude1, thanks for backing me and for those who opposed, good for you. I view some good and bad from both the Teamsters and Oak Harbor. The one thing I do is voice my opinion to both parties whether either like it or not.
