I'm not in the union.
But I know what's going on, Apr 17th, is it not? :touche:

(Edit)

Never mind, had you confused with the IBWU.

Int'l Brewery Workers Union.

If they can't come to an agreement soon, there will be lots of managers and execs trying to make beer come April. :ohgeez:

CWA with Bell. I have an interest in what is going on with IBEW.

AT&T did aquire y'all-Bell South. I used to work for Pacific Bell back in '97-'98 and was a CWA too. So before I left, SBC aquired Ameritech already and then Pac Bell/Nevada Bell. What's left to get? Qwest, Verizon? There are small ILECs out there. I remember Pembroke, GA, when I was doing a VOIP install. They had their own separate phone company, "The Pembroke Phone Company." AT&T-it's all heading into one big company again...

BTW, I'm in the Sound & Communication Classification.

Not myself, but my brother-in-law belongs to IBEW Local 666 here in Richmond.

Always thought that was a very odd choice of a number, not that I'm superstitious or anything like that! :devil:

Local Six Hundred and Sixty Six. Interesting "imperfect" number to the third degree!

Not yet but most likely in Nov. Mgt will be hit hard. Copper and fiber should be OK. I'm an Interconnect Rep. I think my dept will be history. :goodjob:
Where is the icon for retirement? :rock:

Not personally, but my father has been in for about 27 years now, most of that time with a traveler's ticket from Local 852 in Corinth, Mississippi.

I'm actually wearing a 36th Reunion shirt right now. :grin2:
