So now the CWA is on the side of the company's to keep people in check. Nice.
Read this link. Is was the most detailed but other newspapers and media had the same info.
And people think the CWA is behind them. They are but not how they think. Bend over and feel the love.

Why would anyone complain if the union sells them down the drain? the Union management needs their money and influence with politicians and unless they can keep the little guys in line they wont get the paybacks.
At AT&T Staying employed with an union, it is only possible when you have achieved the necessary tenure, That is the reason membership will not increase, why would you sign in as a new member when you will be the first one to go? just Keep paying your dues and shut your mouth!!! These fraudulent stunts are intended to provide a fig leaf of “militancy” to the union while allowing the workers to vent their anger before the eventual rotten contract is forced through.
“I’ve been through three contracts and the CWA has sold us down the river, the last south east contract, was a fraud, passed by 52% majority, to date don't know anyone that supported such contract
There is a reason why union participation is at 20%, And declining, CWA worked proactively to support AT&T surplus declarations, if they would want to make a difference they would have waited to negotiate all contracts withing same time period, all these at the expense of the junior members
The modern current Union is nothing but a bought and paid for puppet/political machine. Disban and start over. Make it employee run with employee leadership.
Saw that yesterday and was so pissed I could not continue reading.
