Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

I can see why people might feel owed

There is a point though where one is taken advantage of and feels owed.

Having to cancel plans and work late for the hundredth time because of things that are someone else’s fault like your manage or heir manager who forgot or just decided they needed something first thing when it’s already 5pm.

Having to work ten hours at work and then go home and work till you pass out for the Xth time because things are due to others and they must get done or you get written up.

Working 7 days a week for months each year and just not bothering logging vacation days because you work them anyways.

Or countless other things. And yeah sure you might get a better performance rating but that amounts to a couple thousand dollars because they have to take from someone else to give it to you.

So I can see why people might feel owed. I also realize we aren’t owed they paid us that is that.

“how do you get a raise and make less money?”

Maybe they mean by the hour or no longer get OT?

I know one year I got leading after working far too long of hours covering for this and that. Taking my salary plus bonus divided by the estimated hours worked made it a pretty low hourly rate.

how do you get a raise and make less money? As well, we all are paying more for heath care. VZ is still better than most. As well 401k match is better than most as well. You must not have ever worked anywhere else.

I get a raise each year yet I make less money , I now do the job of 4 people, I make less money, and over the last six years my health care plan has gotten worse, and I pay more for it every year.

Verizon is a despicable company run by people with absolutely no integrity.
