Subaru: Subaru technicians on strike?

Subaru technicians on strike?
In the Trenton NJ area, I noticed that the Subaru technicians are on strike.
Is this a local phenomenon, or is the strike national in scope?

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
I'd guess local, since we don't permit unions to organize in Texas.

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
The half wit morons lurking in dealer workshops in my area (Scotland - UK),
could never be described as technicians !!!!. Jeez, if they went on strike
they would be doing people a favour.

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
there are several unions in the Republic of Texas. maybe not as many in
El Paso though. I think that strike might b n the local area of that
state you are from. the ones here in the Amarillo area are still
working.

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
Oh, I don't think so. Texas is a "right to work" state.
Okay, maybe I should amend my original statement to be more clear.
But tell me if you know of any big unions in Texas, what and where?
The only union I ever knew of was a government employees union
and that eventually resulted in a base closure! :-(

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
There's two opinions that run contrary to my experience.
So can YOU tell me about the plenty of unions in the state of Texas?
Which unions and where? Texas has always been known as a "right
to work" state that is not friendly to unions. I guess, and I'm only
guessing here, that would be the reason unions are not successful in
Texas, they can't force people to join, pay dues, or strike.
But I would like to know about the unions you know of. Help me
with that, will you?
P.S. there has not been a Republic of Texas since 1846. Thought I'd
bring you up to date on that! :-) But I belong to the Sons of the
Republic of Texas. Is that close enough?

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
I'll leave it to you to do a full search, but my father was a member of
and past officer in the Plumbers and Steam Fitters Union. The GM
assembly plant in my town is certainly represented by the UAW. Pilots,
flight attendants and maintainence workers at the airport go on strike
occasionally, baseball players, concession workers at THE Ballpark. 3-4
times during my employment in the oil exploration industry we underwent
picketing (and more than one bomb threat) during Unionization efforts by
the Ironworkers Union.

Re: Subaru technicians on strike?
Yeah, I made my initial comment in too much haste. I should have
taken more care and more thought before saying that. I have very
good friends who were members and officers in the local Plumbers
union, too. It's just that in Texas, the Unions do not have the upper
hand, they can not force you to join or to strike, etc. I've always
had a dislike for modern unions and their tactics, some of which
you refer to below. Because of my personal feelings, I guess I
just dismiss them and write them off. Thank heavens that I live
in Texas where I couldn't be forced to join 'em all those
working years!
And now, back to Subaru business.
