Teamsters and Lucky Still Without Agreement: Working against a Sunday night deadline, negotiators for the union and Lucky Stores remained locked in a contract dispute centering on job security for workers who warehouse and deliver goods to 235 Lucky supermarkets in Southern California. Teamsters leaders say their 1,695 members could strike as early as 12:01 a.m. Monday, when the existing labor contract expires. Other possibilities, union officials said, are a boycott of Lucky, which is the region’s No. 2 supermarket chain, or an extension of the current contract until a new agreement is reached.
