Will you cross the picket lines of union stores? I don't know if they will also picket non-union locations.

Here in Montrose, I ASKED a city Market employee...no issues,business as usual...I will NOT GO ACROSS A PICKET LINE,and I was being proactive in my shopping. The problem they r having is TRUCK DELIVERIES....items in flyer r not available in warehouse.

CWA strikes (communications of America) lasted no longer than 3 1/2 weeks...benefits r lost after 1 month. Hell, we even went out on a "wildcat strike" our locales were rebels. I remember it well because the movie FLASHDANCE was trending. They wanted to give INDIVIDUAL penalties to the strikers...I stated HELL NO,
we went out as a whole unit....we will take the penalties as a whole unit. (the union then asked me to be a union steward), i DECLINED.

The King Soopers in Conifer is not involved in the strike. It would be interesting to note how many customers from Evergreen (KS is on strike there) will come to Conifer to shop.
I think that the strike is doomed to failure because of the fact that not all KS stores are participating and that Safeway, Walmart, etc offer readily accessible alternatives especially in the Denver area.

Shop at Super Walmarts or Targeta and it is just like crossing the picket line.

I think the teachers unions have done a lot of damage to the image of unions in general, so I wouldn't be surprised if the strike doesn't garner much sympathy. I normally don't shop at King Soopers, but I wouldn't have a problem crossing that line.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Would be ironic if Kroger pulled out of the state and there were no jobs for the union workers.

"Shop at Super Walmarts or Targeta and it is just like crossing the picket line."

What is your suggestion(s) for obtaining groceries?

I don't care how union supporters get their groceries.
