We’re in a recession. Unemployment is 9.1%... or higher. The credit rating just got downgraded. And these people want to go on strike.

I know someone in management for Verizon in TX that is going to be a replacement worker. They’re pretty worried about being away from home for an extended period and also about safety.

It's real easy to "hate" Verizon. Putting that aside, if Verizon fires 45K because of this stunt; I support them. Chances are however, the government will step in and say otherwise since the telco's (this one included) are running government social programs at the expense of their regular paying customer base.

Union popularity has been trending down for years.
There are hundreds of unemployed people for every one job opening.
One would think that these union workers would discern that this isn’t 1972.
Then again, they are leftists.

I love it!
Verizon is the single worst service or product I have come across in my 53 years of life!
I hope they all get axed.

Doesn’t seem like a very smart move in this day and age.

The Union is about to learn about the folly of striking during a depression.

Funniest thing I have read all day!
Cell phones are NOT a critical must have item, I live just fine without them, and always get annoyed when people call me on them, the sound quality is always crap.
Maybe we will get a twofer here, union idiots get to lose their former jobs, and some subscribers get enough sense to just drop their cell “service”.

I went on strike against Verizon years ago when I dumped their cell phone service.

I also think the Union is really out to lunch. If Verizon caves and raises rates for subscribers then this subscriber is going to go on strike and drop their services.

The strikers are acting against Verizon Communications - the LAND LINE company - NOT the wireless company
Verizon Wireless, the cellular company is joint venture of Verizon Communications and UK wireless operator Vodafone. Make sure you're railing against the proper entities with your rants people... :)
