| reply to DotMac4 Re: Can't trust the union
said by DotMac4 :The Union is only interested in what is good for the Union (as it of course should be). Trusting the Union's opinion as to why this is bad is no better than trusting the hack mouthpieces as Verizon telling us why this is good. That's true. People try to paint one side or the other as evil, but basically it's about money and protecting one's own interest. If I were in the CWA, I'd be complaining too, hearing the benefits Verizon gives union (associate) employees from some of the folks that work there. I'm sure CWA feels that Fairpoint has no way to agree to the same labor contract Verizon has agreed to. Working in corporate America for a while, the first thing new management does when they take over is look for ways to cut costs. Labor is the biggest costs most companies have.
All unions and union employees aren't bad, but in my personal experience, there are some that think they are entitled to something for nothing (or very little). |
