Negative news is usually released to employees late in the day, on a Friday before a three-day weekend. I expect that emails about org changes will be sent out around 5 pm ET on May 25th. It won't feature happy videos w/ Jeremy or Katie.

My store gets around 5-15 customers daily most just old geezers asking how to take their phone off do not disrurb mode.

Is there anywhere we can find a list of stores that have been closed so far this year by Verizon and when they were closed? I've managed to find a list for 2017 closing (not complete, but good enough) but there is nothing for this year, and from what... — read more

To be honest, I'm disappointed. I was hoping I'd be able to walk away with a nice check in my pocket. It's not as if finding a new job in this economy would be much of an issue. But from the looks of it, this is much smaller in scale than we thought... — read more

Now that the trolling posts seem to be gone, can we get some actual info here, please? Has anything happened or are we still waiting to see if it will even happen?
