Union needs to get Wireless Organized.

The time is ripe to organize wireless. They are tired of having their benefits erode to offset management greed and blunders. Commission cuts. Retiree discount cuts. Accessory discount cuts. What's next? I'll bet it won't be executive compensation... — read more 

Vzw royally screws us

Just getting out of hand. New commission structure expects us to work like slaves but be treated like peasants. Keep an eye out on an escape route.

So This Really Was the 5/17 Layoffs?

Considering they're giving four week instead of the normal six week notices, it looks like this round was intended for 5/17. Someone here, at the time said the paperwork wasn't ready to go, so there would be a delay, and got a lot of grief for it... — read more
