this inspires me to effectively retire while still on the job. The party’s over, the band has left, and I’m not staying to clean up. Best of luck New Hires!

I’ll believe it after it’s done

They can not offer 6 x 6 any more. Lawyers found it was illegal.

^^^^^ This is how you know the OP is full of it. Verizon doesn’t consider any of the Union employees essential. And even if they did, they darn sure wouldn’t backfill anyone. There’s no work to begin with.

No brainer, new hires no pension, pension insurance, we are running 25% disabilty steady for many yrs. New hires would be next to nothing absence rate. Plus a fraction of the salary.
