Verizon closes $6 billion acquisition of TracFone Wireless
This is a natural fit, but how does this impact Visible?
There's no denying it !!!
Our union(s) have once again slipped us the pickle...... it's as if they're just another level of VZ management... actually telling us to go ahead and schedule a shot,,,because....wait for it..."there's nothing they can do". Its just pathetic.
Negative downvoted posts
Why are so many people posting at this site that don't even work here? Do they think we don't know who they are? Too many unfunny trolls
Brooklyn call center
Any word on when the call center will open up again and require the employees too return too the office?

And don't plan on it. I'll be filing for an exemption. I will go on leave if it comes to it. Stand together. They will back down like south west.

CWA caves. Feb 1 2022 deadline
http://www.cwa1120.org/mobile/index.cfm?zone=/unionactive/view_article.cfm&homeID=861725
Unions couldn’t do anything about the vaccine.
Unions caved and now they’re forced to take the vaccine. The union seems to be doing a lot of that the past 10 years.
Booster requirements to remain "fully vaccinated" coming very soon.
my friend who told me that vz was going to do a vaccine mandate before it was announced (he worked for a company that contracts to vz) just told me: "Vz asked us to provide a statement that we're vaccinated when going on site about 2 months ago... — read more

Has anyone had a religious exemption request approved or denied?
They said case by case but if that is true why would they wait to tell people. Unless they have no idea if they can or can’t accept the requests. What happens to a contractor that comes into a facility who has exemption from their employer? Can they... — read more

Anyone off payroll today? (I hope not!)
Is it possible for everyone to be satisfied?
I am more and more bitter because I am becoming painfully aware of how irrelevant and replaceable we are to them. On the other hand, I am increasingly coming to terms with it because it is impossible to change. Can you imagine this company with... — read more
Free Speech
Does anyone know which foreign government this website is run by? Just trying to figure out why it's not protected by Free Speech, is it Facebook?
How many people work all day today for free?
Hoping the company doesn’t know they have not uploaded status yet? How many walk away today? How many upload today?
Moderator is one sided
Why are so many posts deleted? The mod is deleting the anti-mandate posts left and right. Hold the line. The number in the resistance is larger than the number of sheep.
Don't expect Verizon to have your best interest in mind

No long-term plan
