I don't know which company it was, but way back when they had a strike, the people in class and/or waiting for class were contacted by union reps and "educated" about their choice to refuse training or to continue. Remember, they had no union protection at that point. Most chose to stop/not start training. A few continued. Those that didn't train were terminated and on the street for years, but I guess the union helped them get their jobs back later, I think even seniority and back pay?
I'm sure someone will chime in with details.
Point is, somebody will need to tell them what's what and then they'll have to make their own choices.
