Thread regarding Verizon Wireless layoffs

When is the last time anyone has seen HR in a store? They don’t care about retail reps and getting covid from customers.

I wish our store would get shut down lol

Don't you all know covid is over? Obviously if you work in a store it's over, but if you are an office worker in VZ, don't return to office until December pending.

LOL Snaps during the pandemic have been redonkulous ! It was like they were immune to the virus...until they got it.

Brah I have several friends in the district that are on social media such as Facebook. Throughout Covid these peeps were all over the place in clubs and away on vacations .Its like they DGAF about their fellow coworkers. People went on vacations came back and tested positive. Im talking mostly last year and earlier this year. If a store was shut down several times take vaca pay or PTO from everyone involved.

I can’t speak of this particular situation but could offer an explanation. There is a strong possibility that all of the workers at these stores got covid outside of the workplace. Then they probably passed it to one or more reps/ managers in the stores. Remember Verizon has a covid team that follows through with contact tracing. They monitor things fairly well so when stores have been closed several times the past year and a half red flags go up. Now based on what the OP said apparently these stores had a lot of internal abuse with being around large gatherings and travel. I can believe this but I just don’t see any ramifications for it.
