The Stock Price Tells All

The stock is down $4/ share since Apr 4, and broke through its $51 support level. The company is on the ropes, and the Board will not likely let the srike make it to the elections. Keep on the pressure CWA & IBEW. They execs wanted to starve FiOS and... — read more 

Taking big risks with EWAs

Back in the 80s and 90s, it probably made sense to use management employees to temporarily fill in for striking workers. With today's workforce composition, I feel the company is putting managers in harms way sending them out on these assignments... — read more 

Day nine. Nine down nine to go. I say that the union will let their members lose another week of pay then crawl back with some lame victory tale

Verizon is very much like the original AT&T

Verizon's current execs remind me of the execs at AT&T. They also bragged about moving into 'the future' and went out of their way to get out of most things basic telecomm, only to make a mess of all of it, and end up being purchased by baby Bells... — read more
