I am also a "forced" member of the CWA, I did not vote "YES" for the union, but was forced to join. To the jackass above that wants people to stop "bashing" unions.....F%$k OFF!!.....YOU need to stop hiding behind the union, you are probably just a worthless piece of shit, that is lazy, and needs a union to protect you. It's time you stop riding the coat tails of our grandfathers, and great-grandfathers, a time when unions were needed. IF you haven't realized it, this is 2009, we are NOT forced to work in un-fair working conditions, long hours, or poorly paid. In todays economy, the CWA wants to call a strike???? What a joke!!!! Is the CWA going to pay our mortgage payments? our kids college tuition? The CWA talks about a "brotherhood"....HAHAHAHA......YOU ARE NOT MY BROTHER, or FRIEND.......YOU ARE A JACKASS. Old school union workers are LAZY, UN-PRODUCTIVE, WORTHLESS SCUMBAGS. Do you honestly think the union cares about you???? HELL NO THEY DON'T care about you!!! The union has totally RUINED a good place to work. TO HELL WITH THE CWA!!
