Some returning Goodyear strikers are feeling less than charitable towards their employer after reporting that their lockers at the factory had been tampered with during their absence and the contents taken or thrown away. In the words of Christine Lopez, a Goodyear employee, “You feel like you’ve been violated with your own personal belongings. Whether it’s Goodyear property or your own property, it’s property that you use while you’re at work.”

Not all employees have reported such incidents, and while USW officials say they are concerned, they state that the local contract agreements are their number one priority now everyone has returned to work.
