Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam took a big shot at Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Wednesday for siding with striking Verizon workers and criticizing McAdam's company. Thousands of East Coast Verizon workers walked off the job earlier... — read more 

and they are pouring across the line... Nice to see some who want to work and think for themselves. Make sure you resign before you cross so you can't get fined.

I am so surprised at all the Union Members kissing Bernie's a@@. I would have thought being tough salt of the earth type people they would care about their 2nd amendment.

Hey big talkers where are all the youtube videos you promised?

That's the future of this company

I certainly wouldn't want to depend on service from a company whose employees think they deserve to have better pay and benefits than normal people do, and who will walk off their jobs because they have to contribute to their healthcare benefits like... — read more 

I am with a financial services company. The unions have said Verizon wants to freeze pensions, make layoffs easier and rely more on contract workers. It's sad companies are trying to do this now. Instead of offering quality employment they would... — read more 

"What's your reason for wanting to cancel your services today?" NO CONTRACT, NO FIOS!

Not sure what to think about how things are going.

Hate the riff raff? So does Verizon.

Obviously fire then but anyone remember back in 2011 if many just go f--- this and leave?

This is one of those "justice" moments for all of the people who have been riffed over the past few years. The company can spin but they cannot sustain the level of service given the minimal training provided - last year.

Health care costs are rising too quickly and defined benefit pension's are a thing of the past.

Almost two hours in and the stock is up.68%. That's what happens when you get rid of your biggest expense in a service company.

Take good care of our customers and remember: Verizon collared shirt, out of garage in 20 minutes, no calls to drc or fsc, no idling, no bathroom stops, steel toes, gloves, glasses, 188, careful drilling (don't want you hitting power, water, gas... — read more 

Where do I show up today? Everything received so far officially is wishy washy

We will get to our picket locations and our Union Reps will have no news either. Let the frustration, boredom, and shame begin.

Whether you are union, non-union, management, i.t., or engineering, one thing is for certain. The only reason you have a lunch break, sick time, retirement, healthcare and vacation time, just to mention a few, is because of ORGANIZED LABOR. If not... — read more 

I can't believe that these people want more money. I know someone who started there a year ago and they start out at $32 an hour in the call center. I don't agree with the amount of money that Verizon is making business wise either because if they... — read more 

Seriously you Union people are nothing more than a bunch of thugs who deserve to be jobless and have your kids put in foster care! I hope Verizon locks all ur azzes out!

I have been debating on this. I very often work with techs who are union members. As I have been working with and spend time on the phone years, I feel like they are buddies of mine and I would be very glad to see them face to face. I have not met... — read more 

Hi everyone, I have an EWA and im a bit worried about my personal safety. Ive been told that the unions slash tires and will try to damage our cars (which could get someone killed). Are they going to assault us, spit at us ect?? Im a few months... — read more 

What a load of p--p. Within hours of an East coast shut down, Verizon pulls this turd right out of the p--p chute. This company is so predictably stupid, that it's getting embarrassing. What a bunch of jokers.

Can we also acknowledge how royally screwed management employees are getting as well? Most are just middle class people who have no say in any of this. You have guys with three days training getting sent out to the Bronx and having to drive over an... — read more 

Heard OSHA is going to be out in force.

Any tips for me? I'll have my pistol and mace on my side. I have the right to work and the stupid Union can't do anything about it! Verizon is a good company and has paid out bills! I'll be laughing as I drive by you Union thugs in the morning!

It seems a little funny, all the post here about how much Verizon makes and how much they pay in Executive compensation and Dividends to stock holders. All of the Verizon CWA and IBEW Union Represented employees that participate in the company's... — read more 

I heard you like Big Rocks. So what are your Big Rocks? I just want to talk about it.
