Quote:You might want to read up on what the workers are striking about. I mean at the end of the day, I know you really don't care and are just gonna side with the corporation, but at least understand both sides of the argument.

And demanding that your employer can't make you travel hundreds of miles away to a site for months at a time, forcing workers to either suffer through it out quit seems like a reasonable negotiating point. The union believes verizon is pushing this measure in order to force attrition and then never fill those positions back in, thus saving money at the price of workers and customer satisfaction.

Also, the fact that Verizon wants to move call centers out of the usa seems like a good thing for American workers to push back against, but hey, I'm just a crazy liberal. I haven't lost enough of my soul to be able to side with Verizon, like you have. As the saying goes, c'est la vie.

Many times when someone makes more than someone else, the only thing that seems relevant is that they may be greedy, put companies in a hardship,etc. As you point out, theres a much bigger picture. To me, if one can pay $18 million a year to one person, they certainly can do some Reaganomics with the rest of the employees.
