Will the new contractors have coax cleaning training?
I was very disappointed to see on youtube some EWA workers cleaning and polishing coax cable in an improper manner. Just wondering if the new hires will know how to correctly clean the coax cable? Our customers are depending on you!

Verizon state of affairs
Scabs on long Island look like they would rather be getting their wisdom reeth removed than doing what they are. They are absolutely useless too. Search youtube cleaning coax part 2 . absolutely priceles!!!!!!
Union is next,
Over the past several years, Verizon workers have been filing applications with the U.S. Labor Department for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) benefits. Employees who have lost their jobs as a result of offshore outsourcing can file for benefits... — read more
Employee forced into EWA
I am forced into an EWA assignment and have no choice. If I do not do it I get fired. I use to feel bad for the union and agreed with them in some of their grievances. However, driving my van tonight, and a union thug with his 10 year old kid in the... — read more

Don't believe the hype & the duty to bargain. The company HATES this. Keep up the pressure!!
All too often, management likes to stir the pot in contract negotiations by putting their so-called “final offer” on the table. With this type of proposal, the Management team is implying that the bargaining process is at an end. They may even add... — read more

I don't know for sure when the 'all clear' message for everyone to go back to work is going to sound, but I'm hearing as soon as tomorrow and "practically 100%" by COB on Friday. Everyone hang in there -- won't be long!!
21 May 2016 - Replacement of Union members begin?
Always a date for something. This one is 20 May 2016 for contract ratification and if not ratified is this the date that VZ begins to replace Union members with the new hires? Lets face it...no ULP called and Impasse declared with the Last, Best and... — read more
Dated 5/4/16 Boston Globe
NEW YORK — Verizon Communications Inc. and two labor unions representing about 39,000 striking landline workers rejected one another’s latest proposals toward a new contract Monday, though they remain open to a new round of talks.
Did CWA 1101 (looks like K Purce's group) get this issue fixed from back in 2011?
http://www.redstate.com/diary/laborunionreport/2011/04/07/cwa-members-seeing-red-after-union-bosses-blow-dues-money-on-themselves/ These issues always pop up again.
Yahoo is getting pissed.
Verizon holding off on closing the deal for an 8 BILLION dollar purchase..there is no good way to spin this during a strike and a corporate greed campaign.. This deal would push Verizon right back into the spotlight, and Lowell will probably write... — read more
This boards dead...
Just like the union at Verizon...
Corporate greed is with all companies today not just VZ in my opinion
so why you alone fight and loose the benefits that you well deserve ! Why you are comparing your salaries with CEO of VZ, compare with your co-workers in the industry and tell us whats the truth !!

Sabtoge in Brooklyn, MD today.
I think because The Squirrel Force four is out of peanut butter, they pulled out every single line in the Hub Box instead of bitting them. I suggest Verizon should put opened surstromming in each Hub Box to prevent those union squirrels' sabotages.
Be Careful Union
If I were Lowell McAdam I would ramp up my "new" workforce and then politely explain to the Union that their services are no longer needed. Since 20% of the union population calls out sick annually, after doing the math, only 32,000 of the current... — read more
Mid Atlantic Unions and Verizon met yesterday!
What was that outcome of that meeting?
$400 million strike fund from the union is a laughable joke!
Do the math! 400 Million divided by 30000 workers is only $13333 per person. In 3 months fund is broke.
For all those Verizon Lovers!
Name the accomplishments your wonderful employer has achieved over the past 3 years. Anyone who says go90, terramark, AOL, get it now, Redbox, Verizon at home, smart stores, destination stores, Diego Jackoff T Shirt Guy or HUM is disqualified!
Union Leaders and Company Execs having steaks and wine for dinner tonight while the union members have Ramen Noodles and water.
Eating dinner is not so much fun when you don't have any money coming in. Even Chef Boyaredee and Stouffer's entrees are a luxury when you don't have an income.

The Union Leadership is playing golf right now while the union minions picket in the rain and march toward bankruptcy
It amazes me that the leadership of the union isn't trying to be more aggressive in getting the membership back to work. They are out playing golf and enjoying life while the membership they represent has no income and no medical coverage. It's good... — read more
