Former T-Mobile USA Worker to Speak at Deutsche Telekom Annual Meeting in Cologne
Press Release
A former T-Mobile USA worker who lost his job as T-Mobile USA shuts down seven call centers will address shareholders attending the Deutsche Telekom (DT) annual meeting in Cologne, Germany, on May 24. Blake Poindexter, who now is working with CWA to help T-Mobile USA workers gain bargaining rights, worked at the Frisco, Tex., call center. That center, along with six others, will close in June affecting the jobs of 3,300 workers. Poindexter and his Frisco colleagues worked for union representation at their call center, but have faced management intimidation and interference. In his remarks on Thursday, Blake will ask Deutsche Telekom CEO Rene Obermann to end T-Mobile USA?s interference in workers? efforts to gain union representation.
