whose ready?

I thought that this board was for passing information about layoffs for Verizon employees. Union workers are really only associates of the company.

I use to believe these articles but now, clearly, it's just the union scaring people. Disappointed.

Special thanks to our union officials, for once again missing the most opportune time to strike. Management will take special pride in sending our members out over the next week or so, to work in unsafe conditions. Who knows, maybe we'll even get... — read more

They win just shutup and do your job, the unions dead and we are all in a sinking ship. Make the money while you can, the company sees no value in you or what you have to offer. Just wait for your number to be called, say thank you and leave.
