Derek Gibbs at Pirates & Princesses reports the people who keep Walt Disney World’s rides running are getting ready to conduct a Strike vote. The Craft Maintenance Council, which consists of eight Unions that represent Disney World’s Ride Mechanics and Trades, will vote on November 19th to authorize a Strike after Members rejected Disney’s first offer. It gives the Unions the option to Strike later if negotiations go badly. The Council includes Bricklayers, Carpenters, Electricians, Laborers, Operating Engineers, Painters, Plumbers and Pipefitters, and Teamsters. Neither Disney nor the Unions have said publicly how many Workers the Council represents.
