Ask yourself what the problem is with the following statement: "Well guys, a strike vote doesn't mean that we actually go on strike." I have a problem with that statement because it shows me that you may not be intending at heart to strike but will vote YES for the
appearance of "union solidarity." It can be taken as a bluff by the other side.
My attitude is that if you vote YES, then DOG GONE IT, you better not be bluffing!!! You better have EVERY intention of walking if things get worse and we are eventually released to self-help.
This career...geez...I guess "shiny jet syndrome" makes us delusional when we all could have been surgeons or bankruptcy lawyers!
