They could not continue the strike past thursday, since they all have to go home to the families (no one on the picket line), and they might get more fines and jail time...
In the meantime Pataki wants to be president which is why he hid during the whole fiasco, and did not even comment until a day after bloomberg did! And even then he did not threaten firing anyone, since he needs the unions for any possible run for president.
Basically we all get screwed they go back to their job, with losing a week pay, and maybe 3 million dollars (depending on the courts ruling). And we set a bad precident allowing a strike to happen.
