  • @clay9280 I see that you are a guy that's fine with working for penneys. Everybody deserves a fair shake you would never do it standing alone. Your complaint should be why don't you have benefits like the union employees.

  • @DCOME94 I grew up poor and joined the Navy at age 21, after 4 years, I got out and went to college. Have worked for many different companies until I found the company I'm at now. I'm 43 and have been with this company for 3 years now and I'm very happy here working hard and doing very well.

  • @clay9280 im assuming youve never worked a day in your life because only a teenage brat would say that

  • Unions are whats wrong with this country. Just a bunch of lazy people making more than they are worth. If you dont like your job, find another job!

  • I just saw three men protesting about this in PA for two days :/

  • @HayateAzekura: No government help? I am sure you don't benefit from government financed roads, highways, bridges, dams, ports, law courts, police, fire protection, hospitals, subsidies to farmers, public schools, colleges, universities, etc. I am sure you didn't benefit from government grants and loans for schooling to get that CPA status. Since 1973, the average wage for the majority of American Workers has been decreasing year by year. Telling me to leave to Europe is a childish response.

  • @Quierotortilla The C.W.A. wants to make Verizon its slave.

  • Death to the C.W.A.. Their work ethic sucks so bad, they have to band together and extort a wage and "benefits" they don't deserve. Wars coming, hide your rat children (future scumbag adults). They're no longer safe.

  • you people are pathetic! be greatful you have a job in this economy! i wish you would all lose your jobs, period!!

  • can we get a coverage on what this is really about? lol
