Verizon workers prepared their own personal finances well in advance but although it hurt in the near term they stuck together and will recoup the losses going forward. Freight and Express workers for the most part are in no economic position to launch an attempt at forming a union. Most are living from paycheck to paycheck and wouldn't dare take on the multi month struggle that could drag on for years. That is unfortunate because there's no question that the next generation will not have it anywhere near as good as their predecessors.</p></blockquote><p></p>
