Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

New Year’s Day is on a Saturday

New Year’s Day 2022 is not listed as a 2021 holiday. The CWA contract makes no mention of holidays that fall on Saturday.

For those who work Monday through Friday,

Will 12/31/21 be a paid day off?

Logic days of course. But logic seems to have retired a couple years ago.

Everyone keeps posting different types of numbers for revenue. Wish people would make up their mind.

Post ID: @2mii+1cQAFov0 Go to Verizon's website, it's there. The poster rounded off the numbers but yeah. Those numbers are on Verizon's own website.

@1app+1cQAFov0 You said: "18 billion in profit….9.1 billion wireless, 8.9 billion wireline….yes, wireless crushed wireline lol"

Like all UNION fools you can't get your facts correct because you are lazy! Let's see here. 2020 numbers! Let see what department in Verizon is carrying the water around here. Your numbers fly in the face of what is reported to Wall Street and the SEC and FTC and the IRS. Earth to fool, Wireless blows by wireline like crazy. Here are the actual numbers fool!

Total revenue of $24 billion
Total wireless service revenue of $16 billion
Total VZB revenue of $8 billion

Wait: $9.1 billion to $8.9billion? That’s it? That’s the difference? That’s basically a statistical tie for all intents and purposes.

You’d think wireless would be ahead by like a 10 to 1 margin, considering the way people salivate over VZW here, not to mention it’s available in all 50 states, as opposed to wireline being available only in the Northeast US.

That just goes to show you that people would rather have FiOS if it was available nationally, as opposed to VZW, which seems like only aging and dying boomers and seniors only really want now.

Thanks for the laugh.

I could care less if Wireless is the breadwinner. They pay me a hundred grand just to show up and when I work overtime it's even more. And when I leave I got a nice big fat pension.
( I'm sure anti-union guy will will have a field day with this post.)

Unioners think millionaire means work for 30 plus years until you are old and useless and then hope pension crumbs do go insolvent and get cut during your few remaining years of retired life.

UM... Wireless we gets Friday off if it's land on Sat and we get Monday off if it lands on Sunday. That is a fact. And most of us in Wireless retire with a million or two in our 40lK plan. 3 more years and I retire and last I looked at my 401K I had 1.4 million in it.

Also in Wireless all new hires get three weeks vacation to start.

Let's just get the facts out. Wireless makes double the amount for VZ then wireless. Wireless is the breadwinner for this company so just put your pride aside and face that reality and move on. The fact is wireline is basically not needed anymore. In Europe most cell networks use microwave as the BH and it works just fine. You wireline id--ts should be thankful that you even have a job because VZ has not choosen to put most of our wireless network on microwave like in Europe. But given Hannnnnsssss is running the company I see us moving to it in the next few years.

when a holiday falls on a Saturday, and you do not work that day. You get a DH day. To take when you want after the Holiday passed . Not before .

Does anti-union guy ever get tired of being so consistently wrong, time after time, year after year?
It’s in the contract, and most of us retire millionaires. Deal with it.

somebody needs a new contract:

  1. 02 If a holiday occurs on a Sunday, the following Monday shall be designated

as a holiday. The holiday tour for night tour employees shall be that tour
which has the majority of its hours within the calendar holiday.

  1. 03 When a holiday falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday shall be

designated as the holiday. The provisions of this Agreement relative to the
treatment of holidays shall apply to such designated Friday instead of to the
Saturday holiday.

The contract says nothing about a holiday on a Saturday. Only Sunday is addressed.

I think the union should include in their contract "when a holiday falls on Saturday, we’re off Friday, when a holiday falls on Sunday we’re off on Monday" Oh wait, do 100 union stewards and all the members have to vote to make that change - how funny
