So, you decided to step onto land designated for vehicular traffic to insult/harrass a worker driving a vehicle that comfortably weighs in excess of 1500Kg (a good ten times your own bodymass) but you felt the need to upload a video about it?
Heh, be thankful you didn't wind up kissing the diffs of that wagon - over here you'd be liable, not the driver
i dont know know where it was said, but whoever it was that said " the greed of the unions is what is keeping this economy down" its the absolute dumbest thing i think has ever been said on here.. so until you start to refuse any raises at work yourself and refuse and healt benefits you have - for the love of god please STFU
this company CANNOT operate without us.. they need us just as much as we need them.. the workers fight just to get their fair share, and thats all they ever asked... they never even asked for the bigshots making millions to take a pay cut - they just asked for the middle class workers that make those people their millions, to get a fair cut of the money they ritefully deserve. again - these guys are not stocking shevles - they are the most knowledgable force in the industy.
oh.. and one more thing - if you wanna find out what is really going on, your probably better off going to the union websites.. this way you can read about what happened from people that actually sit at the tables - instead of some editor from the post annoyed that his phone is still out. and when they talk about declining landline industry - their not talking about fios - which is actually an overwhelming sucess. - sometimes they forget to mention that- gee i wonder why..
@kctyphoon The union web-site is touting victory. Lol. Victory? What has been won? You could have worked the past 2 weeks under the old contract and earned a paycheck and still be in the same situation you are now. Why did the union come back? Not as much sympathy out there as they thought they'd get? Didn't really impact the FIOS service that basically runs itself(besides the instances of union thugs sabatoging their own company)? I'm sure the company wasn't beggin them to come back.
@TheSnaprhead umm.. the company didnt want to bargin - which they have no changed there minds.. they took away people pay that sceduled vacation- which they have agreed to pay back - and they lifted overtime restrictions which will allow workers to make their money back. and extended the current contract - which is what WE wanted in thr first place.. the strike was meant to get them to bargin seriously, which is what the union now got from them..
@TheSnaprhead you have absoletely no idea how this works, or whats going on.. and that had nothing to do with it, as we have other options.. you are lieteraly too stupid to even argue with.. you should continue to spread your plan of taking even more healthcare and money away from the middle class people, cause according to you, that is the path to fixing the struggling economy.. give people even less money than what they have..
@TheSnaprhead its utterly amazing how u think that giving anyone that makes more than YOU less, so the middle class has even les money to spend, which is what drives this entire country to begin with... get this through your head - MONEY FLOWS UP. if the people dont have it to spend - then everything falls apart. which is exactly why the country is in the situation its in. the scale for these workers approach $40/hr because they are worth it. stop fuckin hatin on everyone. jesus christ ur dumb
@TheSnaprhead yea i figured that would help make ya feel good about yourself.. keep on hatin.. at least now we all know the real reason your against the union workers.. woulda saved alot of replies if you'd come rite out and say your just jealous.
@kctyphoon Lol. I'd be jealous if I was makin under $40/hr. But I'm sure there are plenty of people that have no sympathy for people striking that are making close to $40/hr and don't want to contribute "jack" to their health benefits. See you back on the picket line in a month.
@TheSnaprhead sure felt good to go out there today and put in an honest days work... im nice, refreshed and well rested.. actually imma run over the chiropractor and go get a free adjustment..
@TheSnaprhead and ill point one more thing out - workers lost 2 weeks pay - that money will be made back and more due to the MASSIVE backlog of work they now have (this is across the enitre eastern seaboard, not just 1 state). the company will now have to spend alot more money, paying everyone's overtime just to try to catch up ( which will take more than a month) , not to mention all the income they have lost for the next 2 years from customers that were forced to goto another provider
and our old contract is being extended indefinately, giving us everthing that we wanted anyway. while verizon is once again left with the fact that they cannot afford to loose the workforce that brings in the money they so greedily want.. and ill inform you, every member gets to vote on weather or not we will take what they offer us - so its not at all like " we will see what we get" - so keep livin that lie - maybe itll make it come true some day.. HA HA HA..
attention all people whinning about scab bosses being harrased!! these guys are big boys!!! they knew when they took a managment position in a union shop that there was chance they would be taking union peoples work and livelyhood. That is why they get THE BIG BUCKS. Union people are the reason they get compensated so well. They are in a union shop!! get over IT!!!!!!!!
If thats one of your union co-workers, that piece of crap should be forced to take Verizons $20,000 in give-backs. I dont know what to make of the video though, u arent all that specific. Not sure if hes a crosser or not, or just going home.
Low life trash in the streets. If they were so smart and better than anyone else why dont they start their own business? Why suck off the ideas of others then demand top end pay for a shitty job they are doing running verizon into the ground. Unions are nothing but bitter drunks, dopeheads and lazy people demanding they do no work for high wages. Worthless shitty people who are no better than any maggot in the trash.
You guys are fucking losers, I crossed your picket line today. Pussies tried talking shit, soon as I told him to get his fat non-working ass over the barricade he shut the fuck up. Grow the fuck up blowing your gay ass whistles that you probaly wish were cocks, I can't wait to cross the line again tomorrow. Fuck all of you.
i hope all the people that post anti union remarks get asshole cancer.. you cast a vote to keep your own people down.. fuckin morons.. now we know why the goverement treats us like shit.. cause the mass of you are just complete idiots that dont even know whats good for your people.. all you morons should get together and strike saying " PLEASE TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING WE HAVE, ME AND MY FAMILY DONT DESERVE ANYTHING" stupid inbred rednecks - go fuck a turtle.
@kctyphoon You should be a union spokesperson! The class and dignity you are spewing is truly underwhelming! This union is not good for me at all in any way, shape or form.I am just fine paying 20% of my health care and with my pay if I wanted to change that I would get another job.I went to college and could do many different things with my degree's.Just so you are aware I didn't vote for the idiot running this country into the ground, who did state while running he would cap corporate bonuses
@redisgross yes people have asked me to be a delagate - becuase i know what im talking about and im not scared to put people in their place.. and for the record , all the policies currently in play at the white house are from the "bush" administration.. which is why most presidents scedule there policies to take affect AFTER they are gone, so they dont get the heat for it.. OBAMA is left to pick of the pieces left by the dumbest person to ever hold office.. big bird woulda been better
@kctyphoon you would make a great "delegate" although you can't spell it correctly....clueless about what is going on in politics today it appears, so I guess business manager is out of the question for you. If you remember Obama is the one that promised to put an end to the golden parachute not Bush. The only pieces Obama is picking up is his approval rating - currently at 38% and dropping. Its to bad Chris Christie wasn't running.A college Political Science class would do you some good I think
@redisgross yea maybe i will go back to school.. hope i can afford it.. oh wait - thats another thing we dont have to pay for either.. hell i lost count of how many classes i took for free already.. would you belive they even paid for me to take a $4,000 course to get my bus drivers liscense. unreal how much money they waste on us..
@kctyphoon the strike pays me 95 an hr plus the ot at 15hrs a day 7 days a week. oh and im lower middle class who struggled and struggled and struggled while you only had to clear 5 trouble tickets a day. when i'm on the property i'm expected to clear at least 10 to justify a 12 hr billing. so you go fuck youself maggot. i hope that $100 union strike pay covers your mortgage and puts clothes on the backs of your kids and pays the monthly BMW car lease AND feeds your hungry family.
@starvingandhomeless hey too bad the company came beggin for us to come back already, i hope that 2 weeks set ya up for the year - and was worth the reputation of being a scumbag for life.. i got 3 words for you. HA - HA - HA ..and who in their right mind is doing 5 tickets a day? its more like 2 and a 3 hour nap. but hey- dont you worry.. we'll make back the money we lost over the next 2 weeks while we clean up the 15 day wait you morons created.. gotta love it.. thanks for the vacation
@TheSnaprhead lol.. let me point out that the article you read is an editorial, and not at all factual... ill make a long story short with facts - anything that was taken away from memebers during the strike is given/ paid back in full (vacation pay/ insurance/pensions contributions), any overtime restrictions are lifted to try and work trhough the huge back log of work the company is suffering from. - so most people will make back the money they lost in a week..
@TheSnaprhead actually - i can just choose to not have my taxes taken out of next weeks pay. figure between that and whatever i make with the overtime ill actually be ahead of where i would have.. i hate to break the news to you but, but as much as some of you people hate to accept it, they need us.. case closed.. sometimes they just need to be reminded of it.. :)
@starvingandhomeless -- if it makes you feel any better i dont have a bmw.. but i do have a car , a truck a bike, and a boat... good thing this happed during the nice weather at least.. my gsxr was gettin lonely just sittin there not being used..
Here is a suggestion. when the company takes everything you got, quit! Go drink the coolade elsewhere. I'm sure the union will keep the $ rolling in for you.
What a bunch of fucking morons...LOL I'm reading this comments page apparently you people don't work for verizon...Verizon made 29 billion last year 13 billion which was all profit. They're looking to cut every benefit these workers have as well as contract out a lot of their work to unskilled labor. The union went to the bargaining table ans asked for nothing and verizon said...We're going to take everything...If your boss told you that tomm you people would lose your minds...
Reality is coming guys!!! Drink up your beer tonight with your union buddies. Before you know it there is no check, a cobra bill and your wife cutting you off.
No Money, Bills, no health insurance. Get ready to actually work and have to EARN your money Losers!
@RightReb What medical insurance? Verizon is looking to cut that completely...Thanks for commenting when you have no idea what's going on...Dave's a douchebag and so are you...
@MrUnknownnoone Do you think the public is falling for your lazy parasite chatter. It will be cut completly once they fire all you lazy slobs. Have fun being turned down by McDonalds. All the while the bills keep coming.
