Will the company let everyone who put in for EIPP leave in October. I sure hope they honor everyone's decision.

@rw you mean you gotta pretty smart to crush out one double wood in between eating breakfast and bi--hing about prevailing wage! Hardest job in the industry lol. You would last a half day fios P.s. I know you ain't " gaffed or hooked or climbed " or whatever u Wana call it since plant school. Boy !!
@kr A lineman is the hardest job in the industry. Have to be pretty smart in order to come home to your family everyday. Give it a shot. You wouldn’t make it through day 1 of gaff training. Id--t
@hg wow. U must be a lineman no one else could be that d-mb with no ability to comprehend whatsoever. Its literally mind boggling i hope you stay the rest of your coworkers will look like shining stars id--t !!!
@g9 Being that the post was about an offer, your time matters. Be thankful that you are this stupid and have been able to have a career at VZ.
@f4 and like wise if there is no surplus or you don't make the cut your time does not matter. My god how d-mb can these people be ?????
@f5 Good luck with your union in 2026. Forgot, my bad. You don’t have one. Good luck with your layoffs
@dq good luck with your union in 2030 …. If there is one left
@ey Wow, the stupidity of some VZ people. Here are your own words: ” @ed no it doesn't how many times do I have to say it. It doesn't matter "your" time. you could have 50 years If they are only taking one person and another guy has 51 years your beat.” Exactly right, time matters. Where the surplus is, your time matters
@ed no it doesn't how many times do I have to say it. It doesn't matter "your" time. you could have 50 years If they are only taking one person and another guy has 51 years your beat. They dont say oh you got the time you can go too. Your time doesn't Matter. Another location could have no senior people taking it but are surplus 1 and a guy with 5 years gets the offer. But said guy at next garage with 50 years is still beat !!!!!
they didn't accept everybody last time or the time before that
@e9 when an offer is made after a surplus , “time” has everything to do with it!
@e2 first of i just told you what I heard whether it right on wrong i don't. Its what the bosses are telling us in nj. As for having the "time" to leave has nothing to do with anything so I know you know nothing about this job ! And another give away. Ive been here 32 years. Ive never seen one lawsuit
They should offer a volunteer separation offer to everyone! I bet it will make them wonder why so many people are ready to go. Morale is down across the company and Senior Leadership have their heads in the sand!
@dq I would hope whomever retires would be financially stable and not selling blood. A lot of very well off VZ people have been making $150 grand and up and stuffing their 401’s
@bf Stop putting out foolish info. If the person putting in for it has the time and is under the cap they can get it. I don’t know what kind of nonsense you are hearing , but it is pretty simple numbers. If not, lawsuit would/should be on its way.
@dq thanks for the laugh
With an employment contract good until Aug of 2030 I wouldn't go anywhere if you consider what may be coming economically soon with this absolute joke of a president we currently have. If you're retired you may have to sell plasma to buy gasoline and heating fuel pretty soon with this orange clown.
No way in he-l.
@bf "I'm hearing...."
You ain't hearing di-k
Im hearing there will be a some type of cap to how many are allowed to leave each location and title. It could be 1 or 2 or it could be 5 depending on the each location, but it will not be everyone everywhere!
@aq Not only would I stay if not eligible for medicare yet, but I also wouldn't leave if I was working from home and still have a four year contract in front of me. That's leaving an easy $600K+ on the table.
@OP Ummmm, if it is oversubscribed no. Not a wise business decision and the union would never want that. Where else are they gonna get dues to pay their bloated salaries.
Three guys in my group backed out already. If you're not ready for Medicare I'd take the four more years guaranteed employment.
@OP If so it won’t change anything on wireless side unfortunately
Company might but the union wouldn’t have it
Why? Do you think it’s oversubscribed?
