Re: Getting rid of the unions would be a good thing!

Do better work huh? At what price does it come at? What kind of quality? Have you SEEN or read about the Big Dig in Boston? I'm sure GM doesnt share your same thoughts about Unions either.

Whoa. I'm not a fan of bad unions, but most CWA folks I've met (and worked with) are smarter lot. Think about the guy (gal) that has to be out on a pole, during a rain storm to keep your service running, at 4am. You'll balk that they get OT. And why not? The sub-contractors that are NOT union are doing a poor job, and the higher payed (and thinned out) union techs fix their mess.

OP- you missed the POINT of the subject: Verizon's Bean Counters have found a tax loophole and would jeopardize workers, customers and service just for a taxbreak! Nothing like screwing an economy (in the long term) for a short-term profit under the name of the shareholder.

Yeah. Blame the worker, not the boss. Troll troll troll your boatt...
