most of them go to their union halls, so they'll probably get rides to where they need to work ...

Re: THE STRIKE IS OVER!!!!!!!!
They better not turn it down... I am so rageful at these strikers.... I'm sorry- you take a job where a strike is illegal and then they strike. If it was up to me, I would put them all in jail for a week AND fine them for the 3 days.
ETA: And I am usually so Pro-Union!!!

if they refuse it, they will lose all support, IMO

They don't have too much support now either- but here we are.

I agree. I think Toussaint and the other union leaders will do everything they can to convince the executive board to agree to this. All parties can salvage some of their reputation by reaching this agreement.

Re: THE STRIKE IS OVER!!!!!!!!
I can't imagine that this won't go through. But like someone said above - it'll take about 24 hours for them to be fully operational. I'm definitely taking the LIRR tonight and after all this I'm taking it from now on.
