Why doesn't the union draw up a petition advising this executive board that if a fair contract is not reached by the 29th, the membership will be canceling all Verizon services?

I'm all for the union staying out if they feel they are being treated unfairly. It is also clear that most EWAers would rather be home despite all the extra money they're making. Clearly VZ has calculated the cost of expense and damage to public... — read more
