corporate goals, union collusion

goal: decrease wage expenditures
solution: find ways to have a constant turnover of union employees so that wage, pension & other benefits won't cost too much. give workers a 10-15 year career instead of 30+ years and get rid of them & train new ones. All major cities now do this routinely to unburden themselves from crushing debt and avoid levying taxes against the wealthiest amongst us. Don't think for a minute these tactics aren't used amongst the Verizon rank & file. Maybe not the old guys nearing retirement, but the younger workers with about 12 years in... guess what buddy?-- some of you will be lost in the trenches (read between the job security fine print).. jobs are not what they used to be.. work yourself to death, and your still poor (not middle class anymore).

VZ workers have been fortunate that this isn't worse than it seems (yet).. meaning that Verizon is doing well in wireless & mediocre (currently) at FIOS... but if the economy or more to the point, Verizon begins to do poorly in either/both wireless or FIOS, expect the broken promises similar to the auto industry in an effort to slash costs--contract or no. The contract is almost besides the point, it's was Verizon does.. not what's on the dotted line anymore.
