Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

The union turned down a 40% raise because of a 2 % increase in retiree healthcare!

I want my raise, my healthcare, and job protections. The union can and will get it for us.

Verizon should've followed Vito Corleone and held to a 0% in pay increase, required the union members to pay 50% of their healthcare costs, and reduce the union employees by 15%.

I think the increase to retiree healthcare is about 18%, not 2%. That’s why it is a huge deal.

@e9 the union wanted no increase and the company was trying to negotiate 2%. The union only cares about retirees.

It’s a lot more than a 2% increase in retiree healthcare cost.

All of you who voted the current administration in are feeling the effects of your decision. Sorry, it su-ks. But for me, Management, I'm richer than ever, and I can run your fiber and sit in your trucks all day long while my investments collect and you wait things out. I certainly didn't vote for this. Smarter people knew he wanted to help his rich friends so much more than you. Hope you're happy.

Paul from the FB group the mothership told me I shouldn’t care about pay. He is a fool. A 40% increase in pay would be a miracle right now.

Union dropped the ball big time with retiree healthcare . And it may not affect some now, but it will eventually.

Prepare for a strike. The headcount is too large and striking will decrease it.
