Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Can an employee on STD be laid off?

Can and will Verizon layoff employees that are out on Short Term Disability? Has anyone had this happen to them first hand? Just curious....

Some people take things too seriously. It's Friday. What exactly does grow up mean anyway? Act like an adult? Which adult? Our president? Our parents? Professional athletes? The senior citizens next door? Mike Brady from the Brady Bunch? The Fonz? Here's a newsflash: you can actually have a good time in this life without hurting anyone else and you don't have to be stiff and lifeless. You don't have to be that guy with the pitchfork in Grant Wood's famous painting. You can actually enjoy the ride, even when things are tough at Verizon. Your family will like you more. Now if you really do want to be that pole up your butt kind of guy, then that's your problem.

If you got the STD fromf Lowell, you probably actually got it from Marni. Marni got it from me! Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
