Seems to me that Unions should buy companies, fire the management, and make the companies Union-member owned. Shouldn't this be the goal? Let the union members and leaders run the company, and fire the "bad" members of management?

NO must be the vote. If we don't fight for security, everyone without it who doesn't take the eisp will be laid off. How many more members will we lose over the next year? Back to picket line and back to the bargaining table is the only good answer.

...with Bob Fudge, the Union got done sympathy from me. Ain't gonna lie, a lot of the rhetoric on this board disgusts me. But that cuts both ways.lLo However, after Bob was asked if we EWAs could get a few extra personal days once this was all over... — read more

Did they really call this a victory equal to the 2011 contract?!?!?

Hubby was Wireless Rifd in December. We have gotten an offer from Verizon to buy out the pension. It seems fair. Hubby ran some numbers in the spreadsheet. It seems like a good idea to take the buyout. Anybody else have any pros and cons?

2015 laid off members reinstated 5 year contract with 3% raise annually $2,500 sign on bonus security for all remaining members no changes to health care no changes to retirement We have the high ground. This should be our LBFO.

Vote to get rid of Do nothing Dunn and clean your chin off Mike. We need new leadership. They both SUCK.

Have you read the agreement so much to still work out after ratification. No commitment to not have QARs, no HRA contribution. NY won, but we were SOLD OUT!

Now that we have to return to work and we gained essentially nothing considering the pay and OT we just lost these last 7 weeks. I was thinking, the local BA's and "executives" have it pretty damn good!...They answer to noone, they act as if what... — read more

Just wanted to give a shout out to all those from Wireless that were assigned and EWA. Kudos to you all, and thank you for doing an awesome job. You rock!!

He said their productivity was better. Five star service was higher than when Union was here Process improvements galore!!!

LOL, DONT YOU WISH YOU COULD HANG AT THE LOCAL ALL DAY AND ACT AS IF WHAT YOU DO MATTERS? IF YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THIS TOTAL POLISHED TURD OF A DEAL, AT LEAST DEMAND THAT THE UNION REORGANIZES THE LOCALS, ALLOWING YOUNGER baS TO HAVE A TURN...IT... — read more

"Our customers appreciate you - with over 70% of surveys scoring five-star service, which is double our normal rate" .. That's not at all surprising see how awful Union members treat people. good job EWA's!!!

Why didn't we get this week to review the contract and vote? If the EWA are still around why is the Union pushing us back? We don't hear the details until tonight and go back tomorrow, isn't that just a forced ratification? Everyone knows we won't go... — read more
