Consumers vote with their dollars. Being encouraged by striking union members to shop at non-union stores and avoiding confrontation, consumers may continue to shop at those stores, possibly on a permanent basis. Non union stores most likely are offering incentives to consumers as well. I see layoffs looming in the near future.
