Union Membership
Idiots, you deserve what you get. A week to week paycheck instead of a career, enjoy the OT, you'll need it when you blow a knee out, injure back or God forbid a more serious injury, from a company who doesn't care about your mental or physical... — read more
Sometimes you just play the hand your dealt
They win just shutup and do your job, the unions dead and we are all in a sinking ship. Make the money while you can, the company sees no value in you or what you have to offer. Just wait for your number to be called, say thank you and leave.

Is there any evidence or Wireless Layoffs coming?
Word on the street has been that Wireless is planning cuts to employees and or retail locations coming at the end of January. Does anyone have any actual evidence to support this? Or any inkling of when this news would be made to the public?
