You've got to be kidding me I worked the last strike it damn near killed me I cant do this again I'm getting out now I went into management because I couldn't work in the field anymore I'm to old for this game
Good Luck and God Bless Guys
I'm out
XUB is off to Verizon camp in in the winter. Very nice. You will have loads of fun. And don't worry, only one manager died on a pole this contact season. Don't miss Karaoke night! And don't forget to bring extra band aids and extra socks. Enjoy!
I just got scheduled for "pole climbing & ladder handling" out of state.
Again, i will have to rearrange my entire personal and family life to be another pawn here for executive leadership.
There is nooooooo leadership at all actually.
If the workers here do strike, so be it, but i will be sipping a coffee somewhere. Pole climbing ? At my age? For the first time?
This place is a complete joke anymore.
Let the "executive leaders" go do the grunt work. NEWS FLASH morons, this is why we have and pay a workforce.
Complete joke anymore, like I said.
Of all the Bogus rumors, this one feels real, and it looks like it's got legs. I see pure annihilation on the Union part The company will not be even close to keeping up service levels. What is Lowell thinking? or does he even care?
No help from Vz west they are training for transition to Frontier
They are not really ready. The company let go of 8,000 experienced managers who have done the do a couple of times. And this is not summertime. It is cold out there.
Another bogus union post.
You strike you lose.
Strike? We can't strike. Verizon is "ready for us." They've been paying for thousands of scabs to stay in hotels for the past 7 months, costing Verizon millions of dollars. Honest, just ask our fearless union leadership. "We're going to strike on our terms, not theirs." I don't know what side is more full of $hit. Let's get out there and kill ourselves for another 6 months so that the company can try to justify laying off some more of our members. Total F'ing joke. I hope all of these b@$tards burn in hell.
all of a sudden theres a ton of work in the load
