Someone in the below thread asked if I belong to any local. What a retard! The answer is: None. You clearly DON'T read the threads on this website. YOU clearly have no idea of "where my head is at." Unlike yours.... it is obvious where your head is... — read more
Why do unions make a "big deal" about the company collecting dues?
If "collecting" or "negotiating" dues is the union's top priorities, then YOU would assume that the FASTER they can get a contract signed, the more they collect. The sooner the better. Right? Then again, unless YOU agree and vote "yes", there is NO... — read more
GET A LIFE OBEEONE!
You have way to much time on your hands pal. For a former employee you care an awful lot! What local are you working for ?
HERE'S ANOTHER ARGUMENT ABOUT "UNION DUES" GOING DOWN THE TOILET!
Here's one of the lines used by management as a "scare" tactic. "The only guarantee is your dues. You do realize that the first thing the union negotiates is dues, right?" The reason why the union "negotiates" dues is for accounting or administrative... — read more
You DO NOT Pay Union Dues UNTIL A CONTRACT IS SIGNED. PERIOD.
What the hell does that mean? Because the union now listens and speaks for you, until there is a "contract" signed, THERE ARE NO DUES. PERIOD. Management will NOT tell you that. Until you vote "yes" to a contract agreement, YOU WILL NOT BE PAYING... — read more
Wish we'd have voted yes. When do the shops that voted "NO" to union get to vote again?
Strength in numbers, boys. Don't go down without a fight. The Altice people are bigger fibbers than the Dolans were.
GET READY FOR THE NEGATIVE S--T that will come from management. Here's my response to them. They're fortunate I am NOT in their employment.
Okay. Let's figure this out. It's apparent that the main negative arguments concerning unions are two-fold: 1) union dues. 2) Guarantees 1) Union dues. Hey, what club DOES NOT have a membership fee? Even churches ask for tithing? They're just not... — read more
IF A PAY INCREASE IS OFFERED IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS... TAKE IT!!! For Altice, it's the sign of desperation.
Then, when it's time for the vote.... vote "YES" for the union. Hmmmm... now why would you want to do that? Altice can NOT suddenly lower your pay because of your "yes" vote. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) will see it as "payback" and eat... — read more
A SAMPLE OF THINGS TO COME. It's called by the police as an M.O., method of operation, or the latin modus operandi.
If you think things are going to get better, than YOU are more ignorant than I thought. According to Wikipedia, "the term is often used in police work when discussing crime and addressing the methods employed by the perpetrators. It is also used in... — read more

Guys stand your ground! do not let them scare you into sighning anything you dont know whats in the details altice. Management and supervisors meeting today ploting on how they fool people into sighning. hold your ground...
THERE IS PANIC IN ALTICE MANAGEMENT. Why do I say that? It's pretty simple.
Though I am no longer with this company, during my 20 years I was involved in 3 "union threats." And it was fairly easy to get technicians to see the management side. I merely present facts that were prevalent during that time. No B.S. from me was... — read more

SUPRISE ATS MEETING COMING TO ALL DEPOS
If you want union u need to get rolling asap.
Suffolk Support for IBEW
Do we have enough support in Suffolk to start all of this or are some shops that are talking about it have too many people who are scared? The more shops we have the more bullets going in Altices way we will have.
Corporate clowns !
Still having faith in a bottomless pit this is what This company has become . if Drahi cared so much he would have made an effort to meet his employees and address concerns. But he chose not too . This war and in war you have no friends.
Honest question
Looking for a real answer here. Why aren't waiting to go to ATS and then organizing there? We'd get the bonus and the union. I'm sure I'm missing something. Thanks

Writing on the wall, put aside your emotions and read it.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. Like them or not the Dolan are gone. They sold the business and have moved on. They have no control on what the new owners do with it. Past articles on Fierce Cable have stated that other MSO'S are looking to go... — read more
