Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Yeah, that's the typical union response. "call the police, don't do anything for yourself, rely on someone else to save you." You stand in front of a car you get run over. Is that fact really too difficult for the Union to understand? Does someone have to come over and tell you to move just like they told you to stand there? Call the police? Nah, call an ambulance. Oh Wait! You don't have any insurance!

Why should any worker be required to call 911 while on the job?? Just get you fat lazy a$$ out of the way! Funny thing is, if a union driver had to face this, the union would shut down the job and remove him because the situation would be considered threatening and violent lol. If all of you picket monkeys would just learn to not act like rabid animals, the situation would be resolved. The fault lies squarely on the UNION'S shoulders!

@nxm depends on if the customer willingly pushes their 9 year old in front of a moving car. Hope every one has a safe "Use your child as a human shield while protesting" day tomorrow. It would really suck if they got hit when you don't have insurance

Or get the f--- out of the way.

Exactly, well said @humbz2g.....Makes me wonder what these replacement workers would do in someones home, if they are so willing to threaten a life with their vehicle...what would they do to a customer in the privacy of there home.

Maybe in your barbaric life. Nobody has a right to hit anyone. Call the police, don't take the law into your own hands.

And this is what happens when one group harrasses another group. This is what happens when people block driveways and stand in roads. Not saying violence is right but if this was a peaceful picket instead of people spitting, threatening and cursing it wouldn't be happening. Always makes me wonder: are you this professional on the job.
