On Friday, on Day 89 without a new contract and apparently with nothing better to do, a bunch of IBEW members made a bunch of noise outside of AT&T's offices.
Today would be Day 90.
We wonder, did the noise help get a contract? Or, will there be a bunch of members with hearing problems?
Here's the video:
For some reason, today's union bosses think that noisy protests make some sort of point (rather than asses of themselves and their members).

'GREEDY' BROADBAND COMPANIES ARE DENYING A BASIC AMERICAN RIGHT BY REJECTING OBAMA'S MONEY
"High-speed internet in every American home!" Afterall, high-speed internet is an American Right, is it not, comrades? At least, this is what many were led to believe during last year's election campaign.
Now that Candidate Obama has become President Obama, it seems some greedy corporations are rejecting the President's offer of $4.7 billion in stimulus money to give every American home high-speed internet.
Perhaps it is, as the Seattle Times says, because companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast don't need a government handout to expand their networks.
Or, perhaps, it is because the companies don't wish to be pilloried and demonized for having taken government money, like the auto companies and the banks.
Or, perhaps, it is because they don't like the strings (read rope) that are attached with having taken government money.
In any case, comrades, we expect to see the White House, its union allies at the CWA and IBEW, as well as the main stream media to begin an attack on these greedy capitalistic companies and their evil executives for their concerted denial of a basic American Right...high speed internet in every home.
Just remember: When we predict it, they will do it, because the Left is so very predictable.
