Have you ever noticed how almost all protesters are cows? I pass by the Verizon protest people in white plains on my way to class/work/judo everyday, and I usually see them at like ~8:30-9:00am and noon time.  In the mornings I see them just sitting down in those lawn chairs, wearing red and letting the protest signs hold their fupas. One or two small fats may walk up and down the sidewalk but they're mostly just sitting. At noon there are about 4 smallfats walking, possibly around the block, while most of the fats sit down and talk to each other in the sun. It's the most pitiful protest I've ever even seen in my life, if I was some big shot at Verizon i'd fire them because their lackluster protests probably reflect their lackluster work ethics anyway. I mean seriously. I think they're protesting for better paying jobs, but they can't even be assed to make a good protest. Maybe the ones in Manhattan are doing a better job, though. https://www.numbersusa.com/news/verizon-workers-strike-protest-foreign-workers http://the103advantage.com/pressure-to-cut-employee-benefits-threatens-labor-peace/ (some links because I wasn't able to snap any pics today. If they're still there tomorrow I'll try and get some)
