“They don’t want to negotiate,” said Jeff Moore, who works for AT&T Wire Tech installing fiber optic lines for the company.

That is one reason, local AT&T workers say, they were striking on South Saunders Street in Raleigh. Moore said after recent big layoffs, employees like him pick up the slack.

“They have been making us work a huge number of hours six days a week, a lot of times 12-14 hours a day,” Moore said.

“We have been trying to negotiate a contract with AT&T since June 24th,” said Paul Jones, who is the President of the local Communications Workers of America chapter.

They have no intention of bargaining.

Are they being paid for the overtime and if so then I feel no sorrow for them!?!
 
If they have been trying to negotiate with no success since June, they must have been doing it by calling their customer service number--the most useless 10 digit number ever concocted by mankind. Screw them and the company they work for.
