I thought I saw AT&T workers on strike outside a building but that was months ago. You go guys!
there’s always a strike outside our local att building
Dear AT&T:
Pay your employees fairly AND GIVE ME THE FUCKING FIBRE-TO-HOME THAT YOU RECEIVED MASSIVE SUBSIDIES TO BUILD.
But where does it end?! Next, they’ll want better health benefits or paid leave, AND 17G SUPER FAST MAGIC INTERNET THROUGH THE AIR! Please think of the poor shareholders…
Probably because their coverage sucks and their calls keep dropping.
Let’s hope it goes better for them than the Samsung strike from a couple months ago
Samsung talks have stalled because Samsung owns South Korea. A union means nothing if a company is bigger than the country. SK shat the bed keeping them in check. They are a minor polity that needs to appeal to other powers to keep the actual power of their country in check.
The CWA, which represents the striking AT&T workers, says its members are looking for a contract that delivers increased wages and benefits, including more for healthcare, and claims the company violated the National Labor Relations Act by not bargaining in good faith to come up with a contract that addresses these demands.
The Dallas-based telecom giant denies the claim.
“We’re disappointed that union leaders would call for a strike at this point in the negotiations rather than directing their energies toward constructive discussions at the bargaining table. This action needlessly jeopardizes the wages and well-being of our employees,” an AT&T spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
CWA Local 3204 in Atlanta President Ed Barlow says the lack of bargaining is the direct cause of the strike.
“If the company doesn’t want to send the right representative to the table, our members are prepared to stay out and strike as long as we have to to get the company to do the right thing at the bargaining table,” Barlow said.
“We appreciate the mediator’s efforts. Our message to AT&T is: no more excuses. It’s time to get serious about bargaining so we can get back to work serving our customers,” CWA District 3 Vice President Richard Honeycutt said in a press release.
AT&T doesn’t want to treat their workers fairly. Therefore they care less about the customer and more about profit
Three weeks?! They need more guillotines if it takes three weeks for me to hear about them.
Meanwhile att is whining and suing Broadcom because their VMware bill went up.
I wonder if that’s why my Internet has been more unstable lately
