Union Struggle Delays Phone Services As Walkout Looms
Adams said the Strike-1 union will honor a 30 day notice before members walk off, likely late June before pickets. At a Friday sidewalk meeting workers questioned the talis status and the latest offer, carrying placards urging to stand together and avoid a strike. The union says General Telephones offer pales beside Southwestern Bell settlement and opposes a no strike clause and weather related pay cuts. The company claims its $2.3 million three year proposal is the largest in its history and says if a strike occurs supervisory staff will cover all lines, causing severe delays in installation and repair services.
