Verizon CWA Union Workers on strike outside 205 3rd Ave. Manhattan New York. Verizon hired out of state replacements to cover the work of striking union members. New Yorkers job being filled by out of staters... Union Strikers have a worker trapped inside building 205 & UPS truck unable to deliver. Crazy stuff. Joseph Flynn & Jeannie Reporting (unedited and needs rotated...))

  • As the poster of this video i must say this: I'm neither for or against unions... My believes are that if you sign up for something, you stand up for that something. So please feel free disagree with that statement too. I was trying to take a nap when all this was going on, but ended up grabbing my dog to go pratice the social media circle, or should i say circus. We all are in these mess together. I wish the best for everyone. (and i still cant figure out how to rotate this video...)

  • to each their own. it is nice we live in a country where you can be for or against anything you choose. 

  • figured out how to fix this video... go grab your pillow and rest your head to the right... no 3d glasses needed, just a pillow...

  • i cant figure out how to rotate it... please forgive me dillinger. It was a last minute thing posting it up. will learn how to rotate it asap.

  • Part 1 of 2 2 is awesome

  • I hope the CWA stays out for at least 3 months. I am a Verizon Manager working 7 days a week - 12 hours a day. At time and a half and that is 106 hours per week. I will make an additional 9K after taxes every month. I LUV when the CWA goes out on strike. A very happy Verizon Manager :)

  • Maybe they should do their job instead of bitch and moan.

  • @MarkSisko and as far as hoping i get fired.. i promise you i will be around long after your gone.. maybe one day youll get promoted to the paint brush instead of the spray paint. happy hunting for your markouts.. hate it as much as you want, but its far easier to replace you than one of us.. a trained monkey can literally do your job, and thats why we make in a week what you do in a month.

  • @MarkSisko ya know what you dont mention either - is that if one of these guys digs without waiting for you, they risk getting suspended if they hit anything.  this is what they are REQUIRED to do. we cant help the fact you got a job where you have to drive across the state with a can of spray paint, and then hate on skilled workers that make more than you.. you chose to do that for a living, i made a different choice. im sure most people would agree we should make a bit more money than you.

  • @eddyvideostar well actually im one of the people calling in for the markouts, which is what pays your paycheck. so i would be carefull who's " boat you rock " . you see these guys for 5 minutes out of your day, and thats only on emergency calls. so im pretty sure that doesnt qualify you to tell everyone what our day is like, and im pretty sure your skills of painting a line doesnt qualify you to guess either..

  • @kctyphoon I shouldn't be posting? Why, because I exposed a truth that Verizon workers (I'm going to guess you're one) don't want everyone to know about? Obviously, "my dumb ass" is wise enough to know that if I'm REQUIRED to sit and for 3 hours and get PAID for it, I wouldn't rock the boat. Thanks, though, for proving what I've said - and making yourself look like a childish little brat who complains about GETTING PAID FOR DOING NOTHING into the bargain. Hope you get fired.  :)

  • @catyla65.

    Hello Catyla65.

    I know that you are celebrating. Now it will be different for you - You will have your husband back and - amatory activity in abundance. Isn't that great. As for myself, I will be back to the hell hole (the job) and coming home each night still to a life of celebacy.

  • @MarkSisko another ignorant person that should not be posting.. not everyone puts in telephone poles - and those guys ARE REQUIRED to sit around and wait 3 hours for your dumb ass to show up with your little can of spray paint...

  • @verizonmanager good for you - and i hope you get cancer of the asshole too.. better save that money you make now, cause ill still have a job 15 yrs from now.. yours might not be around next quarter.. and i LUV when the rif's come around...
