That happened some time ago back home with a fairly large trucking company called Fox and Ginn.

Their truckers (who were doing pretty darn well at the time, if memory serves) threatened to strike. Company owner said "If you go on strike, I close down the business."

Truckers said "You don't have the (guts)." and struck. Owner shut the company's doors, that day. Kaput. Tout Finis.

Interestingly, I just googled "Fox and Ginn" and they're now a moving company. Looks like they're based in the same location. Can't be the same owners; they'd be long since retired (or passed away).....wonder if its their kids?

I must be missing something. If it were I, I’d fire anyone and everyone that didn’t show up for work and hire a batch of senior citizens that are looking for something to do.
