Re: [Mpls] As the bus strike drags on

[WizardMarks]

As I ponder about the "striking" bus company employees, I have to say 
that I'm not sure what we have is a strike, even though ATU1005 calls it 
that. At previous strikes, no union member was asked to clean out his or 
her locker. Nor had management refused to bargain in good faith.
This strike was engineered as a lockout. I do not expect management to 
change it's stance, as I now think that management meant to get rid of 
all players qua union members and invite them back across the picket 
line later on without their union.
