VERIZON is a legal scam and makes about 1.8 BILLION every month!
That’s Profit not revenue, so after every bill is paid and every worker, and ALL debt is paid, Verizon profits 1.8 BILLION every MONTH! There is a big problem with that because the striking WORKERS are not asking for more money, they are only asking to keep the jobs in the USA and save the retirees the benefits promised to them. The CEO makes 350 thousand dollars every week, that’s 18 million per year. Everyone should be furious as hell, because the company should keep the jobs here in the USA and give customers a break on their monthly bill... I am sick and tired of these big businesses selling out the AMERICAN WORKERS and over charging the CUSTOMER. Verizon makes me sick, so sick I can’t stand working for those greedy bastards. I have a strong work ethics and if the company needed money I would gladly work at a reduced pay, but that’s not the case, nor is this something like the days of Bethlehem Steel or General Motors when the company was struggling. Verizon is one of the wealthiest companies in the world and they are taking advantage of the CUSTOMERS, the WORKERS and the AMERICAN ECONOMY. I am not a proud Verizon employee, and that hurts to NOT have pride in your employer... People need to stand up for the striking WORKERS and “what the hell use AT&T.” It’s truly sad that I would tell or suggest that a CUSTOMER use another organization other than the one he or she works for but Verizon is trying to screw the CUSTOMERS and WORKERS. Oh and by the way, the WORKERS that are currently there working in place of the UNION WORKERS, are seriously getting screwed over too, they are forced to work ridiculous hours, and under horrible conditions while the strike goes. And after the strike is over, those supervisors and managers are likely to get “laid off/RIFED.” The replacement workers aka “SCABS” will certainly get fired. Because they don’t have Union representation they are forced to work over hundreds of miles from home and LIKE IT, otherwise they are "RIFED"/ FIRED. Verizon will spend millions on a stupid name change adjustment (from Verizon to Verizon with a check mark at the end) when they could be reinvesting in FIOS for city dwellers or rural areas like Hampstead. Verizon was supposed to expand the FIOS network to the cities and in the rural areas but somehow they are getting out of that. FIOS is part of the wireline side of the business but they won’t do the expansion because it strengthens “WIRELINE side of the business.” Can you imagine if Verizon treated their CUSTOMERS and EMPLOYEES with respect and shared the profits, and a nice discount for the Customers, wouldn’t that be great, but they are choosing to screw over the CUSTOMERS and the AMERICAN ECONOMY at the same time? Verizon is not a nice place to work and they are certainly, not worthy of my hard earned money, they should give the CUSTOMER a large discount from the 1.8 BILLION dollars they profited from last month and secure a 5 year contract with the hardworking EMPLOYEES of AMERICA. If you are a retiree, or a CUSTOMER of Verizon cancel your service and go with someone else until they treat the American workers with some respect, and promise to KEEP THE JOBS HERE IN AMERICA!
I don’t feel sorry for Verizon one little bit. They created this culture, and the changes come from the top on down... How embarrassing to work for an organization so ANTI-AMERICAN when they make the money they do. 1.8n BILLION last month you got to be kidding me. This is not about money it’s about MORE MONEY and screw the AMERICAN EMPLOYEE AND THE AMERICAN ECONOMY.
Currently they are being exposed as "American job killers" for sending American Jobs overseas with the highest charges to the American Customer, I find disgraceful... I canceled my service with Verizon because I rather give my money to a company that returns it back into the economy and not in the pockets of a few upper management. More and more of these companies need to be exposed so that American consumers could have a voice in what happens to their money, economy and fellow workers.
