CWA asks you to stand up for working families at AT&T and Stop the Corporate Greed

Communications Workers of America Local 6450 ask for your help against Corporate Greed at AT&T! CEO Randall Stephenson and his top executives made $33 Million last year. AT&T profits were $12.9 Billion! And now because of Corporate Greed, not unlike the executives at AIG, these executives want to cut the pay and benefits of hard working Americans and blame it on the economy and frighten people into a comparison of the big three auto companies. The difference between AT&T and the big three is $12.9 in profits. AT&T needs to be good corporate citizens, help this economy, and keep their promises to workers and retirees.

agreatmystery......Don't you get it, the company wants you to walk, the union knows this, and knows they are weak right now with little leverage over the company. The union also knows in this economy the number of folks crossing will be exponentially higher and their little sand box crumbles like a house of cards. It's over and everybody but the CWA members know it. Feel stupd and used???? Good!!!!!!

It is your legal right to resign from the union if you wish, regardless of closed shop or open shop. That is the issue that the CWA is being sued for. There are no sipp offers for mgt, that is a term specific to the bargaining agreement. You really need to cut back on the hootch dude

CWA is proving to be a BIG let down for its members and is showing that it really has NO BACKBONE when it comes to standing up to the greedy jagoffs who run AT&T!

Walking way from negotiations and FAILING to go out on strike APRIL 1ST, 2009 only gives AT&T officials the upper hand with all issues... FIGHT FOR THE BENEFITS AND FIGHT TO END OVERTIME! CWA NEEDS TO DO A MUCH BETTER JOB OF STANDING UP FOR YOU! You're working under an EXPIRED contract!CAPE GIRARDEAU ARE FED UP WITH CWA & AT&T!

The purpose of the union is to perpetuate the union. The purpose of union management is to maintain their own entitlements, side deals and perks. Unions purposely erect complex work rules guaranteed to destroy efficiency, and maximize the number of UNION jobs irrespective of the costs to management or the damage to shareholders. Unions are unwilling to embrace the truth that the price of commodity labor in a global economy regresses to the mean.

popquizz Union salaries are available for review at any time by union members. The union is not a publicly owned corporation so if you want to find out what union salaries are become a member. I have no problem with the compensation that they receive for the work they do, As for the dues that we pay it's based on our base pay so not everyone pays the same in dues. so case dismissed. Nothing anyone can say is going to change your mind so stay bitter and stay management.

by the way your management service rep training that you had so that you can cover during the strike blows chunks. Between having to clean up the messed up orders you guys and west and that group in canada and mexico made that's like half my day. So who do I feel sorry for if we walk the customer that's who because they are going to suffer the most. and get off the not 100% voted for the strike thing when have you ever gotten 100% of the people to agree on anything. Be real.

The only question is not if but when there is going to be a strike. AT&T has no intention of bargaining in good faith. So lower management better brush up on their skills lol. I've had 4 friends take a promotion in to management after I warned them not to. After 2 years guess how many are still with the company? one yes it sucks to be you.

popquizzz you are an idiot. What has the union done for me? Let me see if it was up to AT&T with no union around I would be making about as much working for bill millers bbq and I would have zero to no health care coverage.

I'm a third party and was wondering this also, I cannot find any information about CWA leaders salaries. How much are they getting paid?

[popquizzz]

show us where that "public record" is posted. To prove my case just do a search on CWA Union Salary or even CWA Union Dues. you cannot find it. today the union is a scam to grease the pockets of union represenatives and politicians. how mach money has the union spent on your training and education? I bet the company has spent more money in a year than the union has spent on you in ten years. ask yourself "what am I really getting for the union dues I pay?"
