For the first time, the UAW is on strike against the Big 3 U.S. automakers at once. Workers at three plants have been called out so far, with more to follow Friday if there's no progress on a deal.
There has been grumbling from some factions of workers asking what's the point of striking if all 146,000 of them don't strike at once.Others expressed impatience with the latest move, commenting"Why wait til Friday? We voted to strike, let's do it."

For most auto workers on the production line, that represents well under half their weekly earnings.
