@1pvi+1ouNHaqH, can you explain how the obvious is "a new take"?
Did you finally think of this on your own? Or, did someone have to tell you?

No what HR needs to hear is how our district manager belittles his managers on calls and literally makes everyone feel so useless in front of their peers. You have no ethics at all, be a boss, a leader would speak one on one in private with his managers and a true leader would work to help his stores get better…. Not this guy

We need a change, it’s getting worse

@1gfc+1ouNHaqH- you're right.... we'll get rid of a large portion of the WFH slackers. It would target them perfectly. And, there'd be no costs usually associated with a traditional RIF. Also, if we're not paying their benefits, we'd save money on the ones that do stay.
Building off @1cbc+1ouNHaqH's idea- we should recind all benefits. Life and ADD insurance, 401k matching, everything.
I think this would be a huge win-win.

@1cbc+1ouNHaqH Lol please do. I’m sure it will lead to positive long lasting changes. In fact you should implement it immediately.

There's an absolutely wonderful idea buried in that article...
Employees that want work from home make tradeoffs.
If you return to the office 100% you keep your health insurance. For every day you come in any week, you get 20% of your health insurance.
If you WFH, you don't need to leave the house or interact with others in person due to VZ so, it's not our responsibility if you go outside and get sick or injured.
We will be discussing this in upcoming meetings.

Now for a new take. What if the CEO is making moves to the stock price that the institutional investors can or are taking advantage of, for example if Hans were on the board of say blackrock, would that be a crime? I'd say it is a crime. And I would also say, yes, he is on the board of blackrock. Yet we keep driving that dividend higher the lower we go...Stock manipulation at it's finest.

It's because VZ is weak. The only growth we have is VHI and price hikes. Investors can see that. No amount of high dividend can save this company when it's being led into the ground.

In office will not fix VZ’s issues. Pricing is not great and nobody wants add-ons. Reselling others products makes VZ look weak.
