Nearly four weeks into the United Auto Workers’ strike against General Motors, employees are starting to feel the pinch of going without their regular paychecks. “In a couple of more weeks, I think everybody’s going to be calling the bank or their creditors, going, ‘Hey, probably going to be late or delinquent,'” said Mike Armentrout, who works at GM’s transmission plant in Toledo. Striking full-time workers are losing roughly $1,000 each week, and that’s not counting the overtime many of them make.
