Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

The world is tired of you. The world wants to evolve. We are better off without you, The Union.

Do you have a typewriter in your house?

Do you listen to music with a walkman?

Do you store your information on floppy disc?

Do you visit Blockbuster video for your home entertainment?

If you answered NO to any of these questions, ask yourself 'why?'

Aren't you accustomed to those items/behaviours? Using your logic, we should keep what we're accustomed to, forever. Never change. Force everyone around you to adapt to your needs so that you can continue to pursue and receive your entitled need to have whatever you feel is owed to you. Industry and technology must regress during your lifetime because while you are alive and receiving a paycheck from a large corporation, nothing can develop or evolve that may impact your livelyhood.

The world is tired of you. The world wants to evolve. We are better off without you, The Union.

Please go away soon.

Sincerely,

American Society

How do you expect respect from anyone when you speak like this? Homosexual derogatory references, really? You think that the youth of America wants to follow a leader who refers to it's counterparts by sexual orientation? You make the case for the corporations yourself. What's that old saying...better to be thought of as ignorant, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt? Maybe you should refer to leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. if you are really trying to change the way the world views you and "the union;" practicing non-violent and non-threatening tactics. Perhaps your words would be louder and better served if you used intelligence and not hatred.

Let the unions go the way of the DO DO and the dinosaur? There's a good chance you will get your wish, American society.

Boring old unions, they're so........hackneyed. So.......... Non Millenial. There's nothing shiny or new about unions. Fighting to maintain the middle class, some semblance of family life? Oh please! Such tiresome rhetoric.

No worries, American society, you are getting your wish. Since the early 70s union membership has been declining. Today just 11% of working people belong to unions, down from a peak of 30%+ in the 70s. I'm sure you will be glad to know that fact, right, American society? Perhaps you might also enjoy another fact? In the 70s the rich grabbed 33% of the countries wealth for themselves. Today, as Union membership has declined, the rich have gotten.......ready for this, American society? Richer! Yep, they surely have. Today the rich gobble up a healthy 50% of the countries wealth for themselves. Good to know, right?

I can see that smile on your lips American society, reading that the unions and with them, the middle class, are well on their way to becoming one more: lava lamp, one more pet rock, one more brick sized cell phone, right?

Sadly you will get your wish, American society. With the demise of organized labor will go one of the cornerstones of true American life, a middle class.

I can just picture you. Head down completely absorbed by, and in, the latest wizzy new Samsung XK19 super cellphone, with dilithium crystal arrays. Your wife/husband/children? Oh! There here.........somewhere.

Your a fool, American society. A simple fool.

@H7H3737-efw you are the only one that posts non-useful nor germane postings.

Then again, you are likely one of the company POSs that made this board possible in the first place. All you need to do is dial back to November on this board to garner the hatred and chaos that Verizon has inflicted on its non union workforce.

Now the company wants to inflict that same kind of damage on the unions while protecting a little POS like you.

Do you still use a cellphone?

Wait, what, oh yeah you do.

Well thank a union guy for maintaining the wireline network that makes it work.

Wait?

You thought it was ALL wireless? Oh man are you stupid.

It really is hard to imagine how or why the company would hire little homo s like the OP. I mean what could a fidiot like that possibly bring to the table except his whining.

What was one of the first things that Hitler did when he came to power?

Got rid of the unions. Worked really well for the German people who made sure to enact the strongest labor protection laws known to the mankind once they've gotten their freedom back.

Those who are ignorant of the history...

I have my misgivings for the union but it is with leadership, not the workers. This OP diatribe was odd at best.
