They did nothing to help us get into other union jobs with AT&T or Verizon, in fact, some of us tried to hire on at AT&T and were told, by the union, that we weren't qualified. That was to install DSL!! I had 21 years and got nothing from "my union". CWA sucks! They sold us out and they'll sell out the Verizon brothers and sisters as well.
