On Valentine's Day, 2011, CWA members, Teamsters, Jobs with Justice, Clergy, Union supports, and Occupy Atlanta members paid a visit to AT&T in Atlanta to ask for a Valentine gift, "Show some Love, Stop the Layoffs!". AT&T had recently announced that they will be laying off 740 union workers in the South East region, 95 of those layoffs here in Georgia. At the same time, AT&T CEO Randall Stevenson received $27,000,000 in compensation in 2011. At a time when Georgia is facing double digit unemployment and one of the nations highest foreclosures rates, layoff of good paying union jobs is the last thing the state needs. So on Valentines Day, CWA supports came together to demand that AT&T stop the lay offs and show their employees the dignity they deserve. This film documents that rainy morning in Atlanta and you'll hear the voices of CWA leadership as well as rank and file members about what more layoffs will mean in real terms. The film runs one hour.
