It appears that Verizon Strike has initiated a ripple effect of dismay, dissatisfaction and scrutiny. It is only Verizon that loses stability and control but even Brussels Airport and the US Foods Facility in Severn is treading on the same path as the tech giant.

In a post from Baltimore Sun, "Workers at a US Foods distribution center in Anne Arundel County went on strike Wednesday, three weeks after the company confirmed plans to close the facility and Teamsters union, which represents about 190 people at the Severn plant through two locals, said in a statement that members walked off the job at 2 p.m."

The statement said US Foods failed to bargain in good faith and used outside employees to perform members' jobs while US Foods called the strike "unfortunate" and US Foods announced tentative plans to close the Severn facility last June, when about 350 people worked there, reports the same post.

Moreover, as the US Foods struggled with the rising scrutiny, the German and French strikes jeopardise European airline passengers, as stated by Independent and that same scenario is depicting a ripple of effect that is now predominant in most companies, especially with Verizon.

It is irrefutable that Verizon's operations have been marred by distrust and workers dismay. Even Jobs & Hire added on to note of how the Verizon strike has resulted into unexpected demands and a never ending battle for Verizon and the union workers.

The Verizon Strike is still occurring and the events have unfolded in the understanding that the whole situation is now in ripple effect that has affected Brussels Airport as well as the US Foods Facility located in Severn along with the rising queries and scrutiny from the workers.
