If Fred Meyer and QFC (Kroger’s regional brands) are going to stay open, what does this strike mean? Just picketers outside the stores?

They'll ship in non-union employees (either managers or those who have chosen to leave it) and run the store with that skeleton crew, possibly rush-hiring non-union employees too.
