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

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...
