Loading comments Your union also has a hardship fund to assist members whose families face particularly difficult financial situations. If you are in such a hardship position, please let your representative know so that we can arrange assistance.

We also have several community partners including a credit union, many food banks and other services across the region to help us through a strike. Members who are on strike or locked out do not pay dues but remain in good standing in the union. UFCW Local has other members who work for other employers and even other industries who will still be working and paying dues which will help replenish the strike fund. All employees in the bargaining unit are represented by the union.

All employees, even those in their probationary period, have the legal right to strike and honor the picket line. Non-members within the bargaining unit have the same protection under the law as members do during a strike situation.

However, you must be a member in order to receive strike pay and other resources your local union provides during the strike.

If you are not a member and would like to become one to take advantage of these resources, contact your representative or shop steward to fill out a membership application as soon as possible. However, in order to win a strike we must have everyone participate in strong picket lines. In order to receive strike pay, you must work your shifts on the picket line.

If, for physical reasons, you cannot picket, there are other ways you can support the strike. However, they will be required to abide by the same rules of conduct expected of all bargaining unit members. Violations of those rules will not be tolerated due to the potential legal liabilities involved. Whether or not you can cross a picket line is not a legal question, but rather a question of if you will stand by your co-workers and fight for a fair contract.

Solidarity wins strikes and a better standard of living; breaks in solidarity only advance the interests of the companies. Management will try very hard to scare employees into settling for less. The companies will likely put out information attempting to convince you to accept their offer or tell you they need more time at the bargaining table. You have the right to express your opinion, counter misinformation, and take notes of what management says.

Union members have the right to act together and it is illegal for management to threaten you or your employment in any way as you prepare for a potential strike. The companies need to know we are getting ready and we are serious. The key ingredient to winning a fair contract is the unity and resolve of the membership. Each action we take is part of a broader plan to bring increasing pressure on the employers to change their contract offer.

But to get there, you must roll your first strike, or a Jim J. Bullock, who is best known for his appearances on Hollywood Squares, a TV game show that pits X versus O in tic-tac-toe. Follow up with a strike in the second frame, and you've thrown a Double, and you're ready for the Turkey, which in the s was the real-life reward some bowlers received for three strikes in a row. Without traditional names for other strings of strikes, bowlers and fans have taken to name the entire set of 12, though some of those names are not widely recognized.

However, it's generally accepted that the word "bagger" can be added to any number to describe a string of strikes, so five in a row is 5-bagger, and 10 is bagger. ESPN commentator Rob Stone is credited with calling four strikes a Hambone, and the term has been adopted by many bowlers. Rolling five in a row is often referred to as a Brat, for the number of sausages that come in a package.

Meanwhile, six strikes are sometimes called a Wild Turkey for two turkeys in a row or a Bratburger, with the idea that no amount of food will satisfy a bowler who's got six but is hungry for a perfect Seven strikes, then, is sometimes called a Ham-Turkey Dinner for a string of four strikes Hambone plus a string of three Turkey. An eight-bagger is sometimes called LPB, for Little Big Pete, while a Golden Turkey, for three straight Turkeys or nine consecutive strikes, can be referenced as Gordie Howe, who wore the number nine playing hockey.

Rolling a strike in each of the first nine frames is quite an accomplishment, but the pressure is then on in the 10th frame when you have a possibility of three rolls. Section 8 d provides that when either party desires to terminate or change an existing contract, it must comply with certain conditions. If these requirements are not met, a strike to terminate or change a contract is unlawful and participating strikers lose their status as employees of the employer engaged in the labor dispute.

If the strike was caused by the unfair labor practice of the employer, however, the strikers are classified as unfair labor practice strikers and their status is not affected by failure to follow the required procedure. Strikes unlawful because of misconduct of strikers. Strikers who engage in serious misconduct in the course of a strike may be refused reinstatement to their former jobs. This applies to both economic strikers and unfair labor practice strikers. Serious misconduct has been held to include, among other things, violence and threats of violence.
