Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

@dj Management is disposable. We do better without them.

No a strike can't occur nothing to explain !

So explain this to me like I'm 5. Can a strike still occur in August?

Nearly 18% over 4 yrs! How many managements scalps will get collected to pay for this?

Business as usual.

W-I-N-N-I-N-G for the Members.

@ac the fact of the matter is despite the fact that there are some differences the way majority of the contract is the c exact same document- just continues on. so it is in fact an extension. there are things in that contract literally from the 80s and before.

@ab "secret kickbacks"?
What secret?
Who of us kids in the Hall has not enjoyed a secondary 401k?
A few weeklong trips to cool destinations in exchange for the inconvenience of a few hours meetings to teach us to "represent" our lessers?
A few questionable charges to the union credit card, which is accounted for in a different manner?
A couple of questionable political contributions to gain personal clout, and a future beyond this?

@aw your, not you're

@ac what are the new terms Hoffa ??

@ar your not you’re

@ab punctuation is not you're strong suit. Don't make us all look stupid.

I guess I don't understand why they're calling it an extension. To me, an extension would imply that the terms remain the same and the current contract is being extended for a period of time. But this wasn't that, it was essentially new terms which makes it a new contract. So why are we calling it an extension? Wonder if there's some kind of psychology there. I guess it doesn't really matter, just seems strange to me

SHOCKING! Like anyone thought it be any different? LOL

Newbies don’t deserve sh@t.

Guess local 1101 has no juice
