Nope sorry don't feel for anyone in that situation.. they acknowledged that they could go on strike any time that the union feels like it when they signed their contract. The reward for that risk was that they get overpaid to do a job that should pay less. This is the reason I will NEVER work for a union, what idiot gives anyone the right to say they can or can't work?
Life lesson to be learned here. When you sign up for something that is too good to be true.. It usually is. When that gravy train crashes and burns at the end of the ride, don't complain that was part of the risk.
Besides who has a right to complain about getting paid $50/hr when the industry average is $15/hr.. Even at 50% your still $10/hr ahead of the industry.
