job creation?

100k jobs sounds great, but building a network is essentially a temp job. Not nearly that many would be needed to run it.

Decreased competition has never been good for job growth or for the consumer.

Then again, CWA probably has its own agenda.

It may create 100K union jobs, but at the cost of even more existing jobs. Mergers rarely create jobs. Customer service, accounting and other redundant infrastructure jobs will be eliminated. But hey, the unions will increase their rolls by 100K. Multiply that by the monthly dues and your talking about a ton of money that will go into union coffers.
AT&T cut a deal with the unions for support. This is not in the consumers best interest. They did it to help push the deal through congress.
I hope congress sees this ploy for what it is and don't listen to the AT&T and union propaganda.

Well according to the article it says they believe it will create jobs. I can say the sky is will turn green tomorrow, it doesn't mean that it will happen. So essentially, it's all spectulation and pipe dreams on AT&T/T-Mobile/CWA's part.
