Workers win!
On the surface this article describes the joy and payout received by strikers ten years after the company unlawfully refused to return them to work. In reality the real story is these employees endured a job loss 10 years ago, and waited this long through uncertainty and 6 appeals to get what they would have earned, plus a little interest. The SEIU Blog attempts a little better spin on it, but that's still a long time to wait for a victory and some backpay.
