DETROIT, June 2 (Reuters) - Negotiations between a General Motors (GM.N), opens new tab pickup truck axle supplier and the ‌United Auto Workers have not taken place since the union launched a strike against the company on Sunday, according to a local union negotiator.

Josh Jager, a 24-year employee and bargaining chairman for Local 2093, the UAW chapter representing about ​1,000 union workers at the plant, said on Tuesday that the company, Dauch Corp (DCH.N), opens new tab, has not ​called to resume negotiations.

The union handed a contract proposal to the company on ⁠Sunday night, he said.

"They are on the clock, they are under the gun but their finger is ​not on the trigger yet," Jager said.

Nothing better than horns honking as cars pass by and even strangers dropping off boxes of donuts.
