Sorry Suds but you wrong about no unions in Tennessee. My step-dad is a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers in Memphis,TN. It's a little different than the UAW though. They sign an agreement and in this agreement is a "no strike clause" that says if they struck they'll loose their jobs. The union has mediated on their behalf with the company before and I can remember as a kid my step-dad going to meetings to discuss things. A couple a few knuckle heads wanted to vote on striking even though it would mean losing their jobs. Luckily the vote never went through.
