The Verizon strike by about 40,000 works is reportedly over. This is good news for both sides.
It is easy to forget but those 40,000 workers are individuals with bills to pay or with families to provide for. A strike of over 6 weeks was starting to cause real financial strain and harm. Imagine being the head of a household and having to pray that your wife or kids did not get hurt because Verizon cancelled your healthcare 4 weeks ago!
For Verizon - any additional contract gains would have come at the cost of some potentially purely horrible public relations risks.
Good news.
