Are you willing to cross the picket lines at supermarkets where
there are strikes? Syed Ruhman
Third-year, aerospace engineering
“I would probably go to Ralphs if I needed something really
badly. I will not pay twice as much at another store just because
Ralphs employees are striking.”
Chantal Chauzy
Graduate student, film
“No, I am not planning on shopping there. I do not know how
long the strike is going to take, but I do not plan on shopping
there as long as they are striking.”
Marshall Mayotte
Graduate student, Anderson School at UCLA
“I would not avoid shopping at Ralphs now. I do not think the
strike is such a big deal that I have to avoid going
there.”
Francis Cometa
First-year, aerospace engineering
“I do not plan on shopping at Albertsons. I will most likely
go to Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s.”
Alice Wong
Third-year, geography / environmental
studies
“While I do not shop at Ralphs, I would consider going there
even with the strike.”
