Verizon Bargaining 2011: Report # 17
Bargaining continued today and the company gave a presentation on attendance across the Mid-Atlantic region. With just over 72 hours until the contract expires, your bargaining team has been in attack mode. We are reviewing and picking apart each of the company’s demands and they have consistently demonstrated an inability to explain their proposals and how they would work. Your committee has found inconsistencies in their data throughout the proposals to which the company repeatedly responds, “We’ll have to go back and check on that”. This committee and the entire membership will not settle for this type of behavior. Verizon has yet to justify even one of their retrogressive demands.
Verizon, the clock is ticking, our batteries are charged from New England to Virginia and one thing you can be sure of, “YOU WILL HEAR US NOW”. We are in this fight for the long haul and we will last one day longer than you will until we reach a fair agreement.
TURN UP THE HEAT!
TURN IT UP NOW!
