AT&T LEGACY T BARGAINING REPORT #22
Yesterday the Bargaining Team met with CWA Research to go over data to help us formulate proposals on Healthcare.
Today the Bargaining Team continued to meet as a group to put together counter proposals and review all proposals that have been passed.
Folks, this is a collective agreement, but what we are seeing is AT&T collectively hates us. Is it legal? Yes. However, it is not going to get us to a fair contract. They are trying to take everything away in an effort to leverage our desired enhancements.
The strategy behind this is that when we maintain or get something back it feels like a gain. But we know better. It is net neutral and of no gain to us.
This is a tactic used by companies going broke; remember this is a very profitable company.
STAND UP! STAND STRONG! FIGHT BACK!
Remember, the Company’s net profit in 2017 was $29.3 billion. That equates to $80,273,972 a day, including holidays (that’s like you winning the Powerball every day of the year).
We will continue to work towards a fair and just contract for all.
In Unity,
Your Bargaining Committee
