Negotiations continue this week with detailed discussions at the National table, and in the Premise Technician and Customer Consultant sub committees. There are numerous unresolved issues, including pensions, medical benefits, scheduling and several other contract articles. It is important that all members continue mobilization activities throughout the IBEW jurisdiction; this reminds AT&T who does the work, who deserves respect and a why there should be a fair contract for all workers. Informational pickets are continuing every Wednesday at most work locations, while some are changing the day of the week for their activities just to keep the bosses guessing, and several worksites are adding additional days. Continue to wear blue on Thursdays, follow all company rules to the T, work safe each and every day, and on each and every job, and let us know if you hear of or recognize other creative, legal and concerted activities started by members and activists that are popping up around the local.
