Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Agreement reached with Verizon and the unions on WFH

This only applies to mid-Atlantic, not New York and New England. The latter are still in negotiations. As well, there are significant strides for the 5 year extension that has been talked about.

Thank you Hans, Union leadership, and all members/employees

@1rbm+1ae8thtO: weather you work for yourself or someone else, the most basic component of work is... how much am I worth. It's a form of power the individual controls. Thousands of low confidence and/or intelligence individuals voluntarily relinquish that power and much more to the unions annually. Collectively, it's a ton of power given to a select few. The funny thing is, each and every one of them is naive enough to think the few will not use that power for their own purposes. The union leadership only cares about the members when they think a loss of dues and/or power is in the balance, and they'll only do enough to keep the money and power flowing in.

Yea I’ll pass on the union. Id much rather speak on my own behalf and not pay union fees. Unions don’t do sh– for you. The union stores still have the same commissions as the non union stores so what’s the point.

Yeah a strike and all the wfh people can picket their own houses. LOL. The CWA will never allow a long term WFH. You don’t get union protection from your family!

WFH is great but I am looking forward to my mom being able to send me off with lunch box. Hopefully she has time to polish my official IBEW brain bucket.

I bought a bunch when I couldn't get TP last year.
I'd send you one one, but I used 'em all.
Sorry.

We don’t deal with people who take advantage of our non union brothers and sisters.

What is WFH? Work From Hole? The underground wire dregs already do that...

What about WFP? Work From Pole? Lets be fair to the pole dregs.
