Has anyone experienced this on AS during labor disputes? Thankfully on my only upcoming AA marketed flight is on OO.

You may find this information from a recent CNN article informative (or maybe you won't):
CNN: "Woman Who Died After Severe Turbulence on a Private Jet was a Former White House Official....."
From the article's text:
"From 2009 to 2021, 146 people aboard Part 121 carriers -- regular commercial airlines -- suffered a "serious injury" from turbulence, defined as an injury that requires hospitalization for more than two days, causes a bone fracture, leads to severe hemorrhage or other damage, involves an internal organ or involves significant burns,
according to FAA data.
Of the 146 serious injuries, about 80% were to crew members.."
Perhaps this is why flight attendants are more careful these days?
