I got a long recorded message left on my cell-phone when I did not pick up on this number.
They say very explicitly this is a call from the AFL-CIO. It is a political message on the governer's race in California, in my case.
Saying that it is disinformation to attribute this to the AFL-CIO is in itself disinformation. Take your knee jerk Republican hating somewhere else - the facts of the long winded message I am still listening to on my cell phone utterly refute your rash claim that it isn't the AFL-CIO.
This was a call from supposedly a company if Florida calling with a survey that started out about the economy, then I hung up. Called at least twice this evening. It did say AFL-CIO on our caller ID. I have no time for the AFL-CIO and anyone associated with them. We don't do phone surveys either. And yes the "Do Not Call" list is a big waste of time and money!
Getting out the vote. I read some of the anti union rhetoric here. I drive for UPS as a Teamster and make $34 an hour. Looking forward to my pension of $4300 a month at age 59. Enjoy.
I'm with you. I am a member of both NEA and AFT---if this is an AFL-CIO call, it is probably from my AFT membership, and I will mark it so, so that I answer next time. I will do their surveys, gladly, since most of what enjoy as middle class American I can thank Unions for.
