Since this is a "Layoff" site--
Any word on the street as to Surplus List for District 3 for 4th quarter 2021?
Supposed to be announce today 9/15/21

Well looks like the chairs in the ssim office will all get held down for 3 more months. Heck, they will probably add some more chairs.
Since all of us are leaving in droves in District 3, they can’t afford to lay off anybody. Personally, I love it. They sat up there and bragged about their layoffs for years but, everybody just decided to forgo the drama and quit instead. It’s truly a blessing not having to listen to that useless cr-p anymore!
No D3 surplus for the 4th quarter. It was just posted on the CWA 3204 website.
Finally somebody posted relevant question. Who cares about vaxers and antivaxers. So much drama about vaccine. To be or not to be.
I think the OP is referring to union represented employees (hence "District 3"), in which case a list should be made available.
Of course, the management list is a tightly guarded secret, but I remember when I was in the union, whenever a surplus was announced, we would be able to see of list of numbers, locations, and affected job titles, along with a seniority list. With that information, you could make a reasonable projection of your personal risk.
11:30 AM on 9/15/2021 - Still no list available
Actually, someone did share a screenshot of one back in 2019 and it turned out to be very accurate. But but that’s the only time it’s ever happened. The first lines and the union already know the final surplus numbers by the first of the month, but they won’t say anything until the official list is put out.
Besides, nobody will ever share 'the list' from any company. Tightly guarded, those things are. Nobody who would dare share has ever seen one.
i am sorry, but you are mistaken. This is no longer the layoff site; it has become the vaxxers vs. antivaxxers site.
