Enjoy standing next to your wives while you are on strike, your children and eating dinner with your family every night while this continues. I was only married to my husband for three weeks before this began. He is not just a manager. He served our... — read more 

It's Flattering.

Where is this email from today someone post it! Without insults lets look at the facts and what the message states thank you

Let’s just agree to the mediation already and split the difference on the last few remaining issues. It’ll be better than being on strike for several months and having the same result. The 30 year pension also by the way shouldn’t be an issue as most... — read more 

RIP CWA. You threw away your jobs with your own greed. For that I have no pity for your demise

No further comment

I know there is a lot of animosity between union and management on this site. Personally, I think the conduct from both sides has been reprehensible. As others have said, the strike has brought out the worst in everyone. With that said, it feels now... — read more 

is that not the truth? Yes or no answers please.

Looks like the company is due for a long list of headaches from shareholders at the next shareholders meeting.

For real though

You better get the union back soon to save it!

I will be happy not to see all the lazy good for nothings sleeping in their trucks in the central offices and dont even move when you come in unlike cocker roaches who run when the lights are turned on. Love to say good riddens.

Really though even is much better without the union able to comment on articles and such so much better ! Union provided no useful convo to it anyway!

Just for anyone who is curious to see who crossed

People are simply, not trained well enough

Trying to understand how this works. Do the union members who cross the line retain their benefits and pay?

I'm speechless. I feel back for the union people who didn't see this coming, and I feel bad for the EWA people who are stuck in jobs away from home. Pretty dark day.

Time to cross back before it's too late.... The union bosses are not losing any sleep over you, your families or your well being. They are in it to make sure they continue to get their dues, that their "union" can prosper. With all the union dues... — read more 

This could not have been planned out any better than it's playing out. This Fight will be taken to every Street in America. The biggest stage to point out an "attack" on the American worker. How could a Company such as Verizon send American Jobs... — read more 

The end will be by the end of the year with replacement workers trained and in place.

Lol lol

Not because Verizon wants to rid themselves of the Union but because the union mgmt like Chris Shelton is nothing more than hard headed do nothing's

Don't by the Company Bullsh-t your see here trying to win you over to there side...If they really thought you were useless, and replaceable, why would they be on here with a thousand post trying to put doubt in your head? Looks like desperation to... — read more 

(and I don't mean it in some lame EWA joke reference). I truly feel bad for the good union folks whose lives are never going to be the same with regard to Verizon.

I have been a technician for this company for 27 years and have been through numerous strikes without even thinking of crossing the line. My sons is scheduled for surgery tomorrow and I called the union last week when it looked as if we were going to... — read more

Read this in a post down in one of the threads and cant quit laughing. Best smackdown on a union troll I've read on here yet. OP, this is so freaking true! "Sounds like you have no reason to come back then. Didn't realize the union people were all so... — read more 

As a shareholder I want Verizon to kill the Union. I think it will allow wireline to have the profits I want to see. I also believe these two executives are key to killing the union and hope they succeed!

Now that we are into May, does anyone want to take another guess at how long this thing lasts? I thought that maybe 5/1 would be a turning point but it looks like that didn't happen. I really don't see anything on the horizon that could force either... — read more 

What They Say: Union officials not going to accept Verizon's proposal, Verizon not going to budge Union officials not willing to accept mediation What It Means: Union members are f****d

This minister of propaganda doesn't have the proper skills to bargain fairly and should be relieved of his duties. Hopefully god will intervene and send this greedy corporate puppet packing.
