A mouse carved from a radish, Anarchists, Wobblys and other activists carried signs and handed out flyers describing the Safeway store's health-code violations in the past year:
This tactic was used 'cause we reasoned that shoppers would be more concerned with the un-sanitary conditions found in the store than with showing Working-class solidarity.
We reasoned correctly

So did these violations occur when the Union workers were there? Whats your point? You fools amaze me, you do everything in your power to damage the company that you hope to be employed by. You banana scanners are not the sharpest tools in the shed, just tools
Scabbie, you must pay more attention in class. The abbreviation AZ for a state does NOT mean California. AZ = Arizona. The strike is in Southern California. You will thank me one day when you finally get a real job that requires you to read and fill out an application.
I have no sorrow for striking Union workers. None. If they don't like their jobs, they can quit and get another one.
Granted, in George Bush's Fascist America which has lost over 2.4 million jobs since he was appointed to the White House, finding jobs is difficult. Still, the whole idea of striking just because one doesn't like their job smacks of, well, stupidity.
My opinions only, of course.
what most people do not understand is that this is a struggle between corporate greed and human need.... greed vs. need. thousands of men and women, some raising single-parent families rely on this company and all of the benefits that they once had.. it is not a matter of wanting a new job or wanting more money... it is about being raped by a large multi-billion dollar corporation, all so that this company won't have to pay for their worker's benfits or pensions.. all they want are scabs who can deal with high turnover rates. please don't be so myopic and just assume that we strikers need a new job... many people have worked here for at least 30 years.. building up our retirements and pensions... how would u like it if all tht was just raped from you? try to look at this from a different point of veiw... cuz if this doesnt work out for the working class.. it is soon to be the end of the working class.... corporations will see this, take advantage of everyone's vulnerability, and the gap between the upper and lower class will be widened even more. thanks for reading
