My DH works for Qwest and their contract is up tomorrow night. At this point, a strike is not out of the question and the workers are quite concerned and worried.

I know not everyone likes their service, but they actually are a decent employer and they are currently setting up the communications for the Republican National Convention, which is where DH is today.

If you can spare a good thought or prayer, much appreciation from us to you!

Good thought and prayers to your hubby and Qwest..  The thought of strike, layoff or otherwise is not a good feeling and I pray that things get resolved before..

Amy~I will definitely say a prayer for them, because while I was one of the unfortunate ones who had a bad experience with them I would not want them to have to go through a strike especially with something as big as the RNC coming in.

I'll definitely be thinking of your DH and your family. I used to work for Qwest for approx. 5yrs. They are a good employer. My mom actually works for the union your DH belongs to, so I will definitely be in the know as things unfold. She's been putting in a ton of OT lately gearing up for this. Hopefully there will not be a strike. If they're contracted for the RNC phone service a strike would be so detrimental, I sure hope it doesn't come down to that.
