For me it's not a pro- or anti-union stance. If union members feel they are better represented in union solidarity via their union reps, and feel that the way to get maximum compensation/benefits via a strike, I think that they have more societal support for it than any time in decades as societal sentiment is currently leaning heavily on support for unions. At the same time I can also selfishly hope for a strike because I very much enjoy EWA assignment for change of pace, travel, and of course the huge monetary windfall that comes with having an already bloated salary be augmented w/time and a half after 10 AM on Thursdays thru the rest of the week. Even though admittedly our 'management'(I manage nobody, but I'm a manager in their parlance) EWA work is a nothing burger with regards to volume of work, level of competency, lots of basic non-skilled grunt work to keep us busy so we don't sc--w up and REAL stuff, I'm OK with VZ thinking that doing that during a strike somehow shows 'We're Fine' while everything is backlogged and nothing REAL gets done...if VZ thinks that's what it conveys, and that's the plan, I'm eager to hit the road again for #3 EWA during my tenure. Some things work for union and non-union, and for me if union strikes and gets additional benefits while I bank an extra $10-15000 on a paid field trip, it's win-win.
This is a layoff page. Not the union whiners page. That is why it is called the layoff.com and not uniondreg.com
Vamoose unioners. Or be trolled. Your choice.
Why am I not surprised that no one left a serious coherent reply? This board has been over taken by miserable anti union a-holes. You all sound so ridiculous ranting about others being miserable it's you who can't even reply to a post like a grown adult with an education.
Word is union free In 2023!
June 4th of next year,really keep the membership in the dark.like 2010 go back to work without a contract and sc--w your members..
Clearly they have already taken away your gonads, so taking your rights away is pretty easy after that.
Heard that the company and Union are both pushing for pay and benefits to be determined by your woke score. Sticking point is how to determine how woke an employee is. Example: purple hair, while not at all professional, gives you a woke score of 97, but then your social media shows that you once had fun, so your woke score drops to 45. You get 45% pay. And your score can change week to week so don’t think you can just pretend to be woke.
EWA and I quit
After EWA is over.
I hope there is another EWA and lasts 6 months. Imagine how much money in overtime you will make 💰
Yeah. There are no talks. It's over.
13500 said there will be no announcement from company or union until the talks are are over on June 4th
