The scenario describes a collective bargaining process, where truck drivers are on strike to negotiate for higher wages. This indicates that there is some level of wage rigidity, as the market is currently clearing at WM and QM. Collective bargaining is a form of negotiation between an employer and a group of employees represented by a union, which can lead to wage increases or other benefits for workers.
