Yeah. Calculate in the interest for a payday loan or re-connection fees when the power gets cut-off.
Even given the 7 day scenario, losing a week of pay to make it up in a year is pretty pointless. Considering you've made up your wages based on the old pay rate, it negates the raise for that year. If they're on strike for a month, it negates the raise for the entire contract. So you're now working for 3 years at the same rate as last year.
