Can you give examples of what you are talking about? What cultural knowledge is needed on the part of the call center worker regarding credit card issues?

Disputing a charge at a strip club made on the company AMEX card.

A similar strategy-though, with more outright violence on the part of union locals-was adopted by striking "Daily News" workers in the early 90s.

You can read about in Linda Chavez's latest book, Betrayal.

It's a scathing indictment of how organized labor does business in contemporary America.

Its still just a charge you are disputing. What should the call center worker need to know that he doesnt not? The inner workings of a strip club?
