strike tries flyin on one wing

mechanics struck northwest today

but ...

"The mechanics association,
 which calls itself a craft union
 rather than an industrial union, 
is not a member of the AFL-CIO, 
which may prove to be a crucial point
 in determining whether the walkout is successful
 Without the support 
of pilots, flight attendants
 and the machinists union,
 which also said 
it would not honor the picket lines, 
the mechanics could quickly 
find themselves isolated"

and the bosses claim
to have 1500 scabs waiting 
off stage 

charge of the ight brigade time pals 

how the fuck does this still happen .....
