A strike deadline has now passed for Southern California grocery workers, but no one is walking off the job just yet.

As of Monday morning, negotiations continued between union leaders and grocery store owners. Leaders talked through the night, but came to agreement, according to Mickey Kasperian, spokesperson for the United Food and Commercial Workers local 135.

UFCW Local 770 spokesman Mike Shimpock told the Associated Press after the deadline that union representatives will remain at the bargaining table as long as they feel progress is being made.
