Why place the fiber yourself when you can pay quadruple the price per foot by buying up companies that already did it?

Lumen is a fully remote company. Will they integrate with the 5 day RTO rules? Or will it be yet another example of injustice?

@bs
Damn near everyone seems to be remote. Except for some engineers who show up daily and the techs have to report everyday with no home garage. But the lumenites who ran this place sold all the old office buildings off in my city...which at one time was the hub for sales/dispatch/repair/and assignment in the region. Maybe something left in denver or minneapolis? Possibly Omaha. Who the f knows these days.

More rounds of layoffs. That's the whole point of this merger.
