They’ve been out there for the past couple of business days, at least. Since last Wednesday, maybe? I don’t think the guy with the drum showed up today.

I work down the street and hear them pretty clearly.

There’s a difference between informational picketing and actual striking. They are doing the former; the latter happens when the people actually working there stop working because of contract issues.

They’re not striking, according to the flyer I received the other week, they’re merely letting people know that OMNI Interiors doesn’t pay union wages.

They’ve been striking since mid-summer at least; I’d pass by them each morning this summer when I was taking my summer class at PSU.

I believe they’ve been on strike since early Summer. They were just at 2nd and Salmon a couple months ago.
