Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Verizon tech to answer more common questions.

Looks like my first post was quite popular so we’ll do it again.

  1. Yes, there are some who take their job seriously. They take pride in the work they do and it shows.
  1. It’s always customer services fault. I don’t want to install 4 boxes, I guess the order only has 1 box. “You’ll have to call customer service” is a favorite excuse. 9 times out of 10, the order is correct. We just don’t want to do it.
  1. Don’t have us come in the afternoon if you want the work finished that day. I’m not installing 3 services on a 3-5.
  1. Copper? Good luck with that.
  1. Most of us are coasting to time and age. It’s sad but it’s true.
  1. The job has its moments but it really is the easiest job in the company.
  1. Old timers poison the new hires. They really should have them separated. There would be a huge turn around within the workforce.

This is hilarious! A lazy, entitled union guy posting about his day saying how lazy he is.

Package won’t make up for the pension amount they have lost due to rates.

They should come out with a big fat EIPP to get those toxic old timers to leave. I don’t know who’ll do all the work after that, but it won’t be my problem.

What a toxic, disgusting post, OP. you're the problem with this company. We need people who want to be here, are pleasant, and con-artists like yourself. I'm glad we have your URL address after that one 😉

Tech: are you getting better job description now that people are working from home or is it a disaster and everyone should RTO?

If you remove the seasoned people from the training process, who will show them the ropes? Their foremen? 🤣

Set up all the boxes on one TV. If they’re wireless and just need power/HDMI what’s stopping you from hooking them to inputs 1-4 and just bo-m bo-m bo-m?
