I like one of the readers's comments:

"If I were a frachise owner and my employees went on strike, Presto, the next day they would be out of a job. Plain and simple."

Nailed it.

when I do eat fast food, I always aim for a non-franchise. I bet they will be busy tomorrow!

*Yawn* Nobody cares. Those jobs were never intended to be ‘permanent’.

Do a Reagan on them. The minute they walk out the door, fire them. Have a contingent to fill in immediately.

In this job market, the union thugs could get their backs broken.

If management found out who was willing to participate and who was not, offer a bonus to those who stayed on the job.

As for the union rabble “picketing” in your lot? Its the franchisees’ lot, therefore private property, therefore defiant trespass.

Have them arrested and PRESS CHARGES.

You can snip this crap in the bud, if you have balls.

I have to imagine that any of these fast-food places has a stack of resumes from folks wanting to work there.

I’d tend to think that a min wage job is about on par with the typical “menu” of welfare benefits available, so showing up 40 hrs a week seems like an awfully big hassle.

I don’t eat that garbage anyway. Now that I see who prepares it, I guess I ain’t missing a thing.

The managers need to have an employment line out the back of their place and fire the dorks who are picketing. These jobs are easily refilled.

no fast food worker, without a high school education,maintaining a “B” average, should be allowed to strike.
