Oh, it's on now! San Diego will be walking tomorrow. We just got the green light by our stewards. All because of Port Swapping. I hate to say this but our local has no leadership. Today, 9511 walked and it was one of the most unorganized strikes I've... — read more
The AT&T Post-Layoff Experience - not pretty
I was part of the 5,000 people laid off at the end of 2016; wanted to share experiences, compare notes, and let others know what they may be in for: Be very careful about what you are told, by AT&T or it's appointed "partners" (Fidelity, Hewitt, Aon... — read more

CWA Southwest Tentative Agreement Vote NO
On the face of it, it looks like a decent contract. But it is not. This contract, facilitates the companies desire to get rid of us more easily. The changes in JOG make it MUCH easier to get us off the payroll. Educate yourselves. It is a bad deal.
Premise Techs Beware
