On Frontier Drive at Springfield Town Center, AT&T employees were striking outside the AT&T store over the weekend May 20-21 as a part of a nationwide strike that encompassed 36 states and 40,000 AT&T employees, said strike coordinator Troy Smith. The strike was aimed at improving their health care benefits, commission plans and the outsourcing of jobs, said Smith, who called it “corporate greed.” Photo by Mike Salmon.
