One woudl "guess" he workeed for Avay tech serrvccide as a road wrrior, and not at the plant? The plant closed down in 2014. Yet maybe many of his years of employment were at various stages of Avaya.Lucent, or AT&T? Since usually the CWA represent the other part of Ma Bell in the Northwestern Bell/phone company days?
