my counterpoint is that the union leaders can then look at the company like this:

Brilliant to have a strike with a set duration so that A) management knows your serious B) management can accurately determibe the potential cost of the strike C) if the strike does occur, you’ll have higher participation rates and D) if the strike does occur, it won’t drain the union’s coffers as it has in the past with the American UAW.

Absolutely brilliant planning. IBEW ought to be taking notes!
