Surplus calls today, 9/4??

Has any manager received a phone call today yet about your workgroup being affected in the upcoming 4 Q craft surplus?

This is a valid question, and I think you know what I meant... If AT&T were to surplus us today, they would give us a severance package. This is, however, a delayed surplus exercise. Anyone who thinks the bulk of us will still be around after a year of TechM employment is in for a surprise. Certainly some of us will still have jobs, but if history repeats itself, most of us will be let go. This same thing happened to another group several years ago, and by far most of those effected by that outsourcing were let go by TechM 1-2 years later.

AT&T is laying us off, and TechM is offering us employment. I don't see how not accepting the TechM offer allows AT&T to avoid paying out severance as it's not AT&T offering us another position.

"Legally required to pay severance"?? Are you kidding?

I'd like to know how it's legal for AT&T to consider not accepting an offer from a third-party (TechM) as a voluntary resignation. Shouldn't this be a layoff with AT&T legally required to pay us severance?
