Amoroso Rolls Again

The picket line is down at Amoroso's West Philly bakery, according to Teamsters Local 463 President Bob Ryder .

Drivers will be back to work tonight, pending talks in federal court tomorrow, after Amoroso's sought a federal court injunction barring pickets from stopping trucks. Amoroso's called it an illegal strike since it took place before the labor contract expires next month. But drivers say Amoroso's was laying them off, so they were not subject to the contract's no-strike clause.

Ryder says Amoroso has failed to convince enough drivers to leave the union and become independent contractors, paying their own expenses on hopes of generating more sales and profits. This dispute at Amoroso's has delayed the daily hoagie and cheesesteak cycle at hundreds of groceries, delis, restaurants, and neighborhood shops.
