AT&T hopes strike is short
AT&T predicts a strike by 155,000 workers could last up to a month before major network problems emerge. Frank Blount says the system is highly computerized and not affected in the short run, though a month would be too long. Negotiations show little progress after an hour in Washington. Managers work extra hours, 3,000 temporary operators hired, and call-answer delays have varied from 25 seconds to near a minute. If prolonged, private-line installations would slow, impacting business data and videoconferences. Thirteen of 24 factories stayed open, 613 of 656 Phone Centers remained open, with offices staffed at reduced levels.
