The lead position in my department has come open and my store manager has a habit of bending the protocol a bit and handing out positions in house instead of posting them area/zone(?) wide like they're supposed to.

If my Union were to go on strike and I wanted to keep working, would I be able too? Also when the strike is over, would I still keep my job, when all the other workers return to work?
