Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

1uou is a post farther Dow, 7 from the bottom.

@1uou?

@1uou, when you presume to speak on behalf of Google and Apple, are you speaking from the point of view of their tech employees, or their C-suite executives?

@3tan, if you're having comprehension difficulties, maybe you'll understand @xpj 's synopsis of the OP's point.

OP, what is your point?

Dearest Union Bit©h....

Bahahahahahaha. Jealous much?? I will enjoy my UNION bennies once I retire. T-2 years and counting. Hope you’re around until then....

Are you kidding?

Wheres my EISP? Wahh...Wheres my contract? Wahh...I'm on strike and I can't pay for anything! Wahh...This GATT rate stinks! Wahh...My garage boss is a jerk! Wahh...

Never met a bigger bunch of cry babies in all my life until I saw wireline.

Wireline employees are not allowed to access WIRELESS employee profiles in VZWEB. All you see is a message indicating this restriction.

Nuff said.

One Verizon, you are kidding right? How can they be one company when the do not acknowledge the employees that came from gte, mci and xo....yet alone wireline vs wireless.

This company has never been ONE verizon,the wireless sector trash the wireline side cause they think they are better or more educated,they have chips on their shoulders and only now and since 2016 the company that they all worship..which created the divide is knocking down all their chips and all you hear is their crying about how great they were and how VZ gave them the BOOT..GOD don't like ugly and you got your KARMA for the hate you had for the same emplyees that worked here while you were being breast feed my your mama...

I agree with OP

That's why the Union is toast. Everything is contracted out these days

Cool story bro! You know what C-apple and Google really don't want? A union workforce. Maybe the overpaid, lazy government sector.

@wvk What kind of fantasy world do you live in? We will never be One Verizon. Anyone who has been around for the last 15 or so years knows the deep rooted animosity between the wireless and wireline Verizons. Don't you read the posts on this page from the wireless side? Wireless hates Wireline because they don't understand the phone business. This company is broken and Verizon leadership is responsible for the huge divide between the two. Don't give me that BS about being One Verizon when wireless is putting new equipment in cages in wireline central offices and buying dark fiber. Oh. Sorry. Did I lose you again? Too technical?

Give it up on this tireless documentation of the two companies. Remember we are One Verizon and the sooner you start thinking that way it will allow the company to move forward. This endless chatter is just that GIVE IT UP !!!

Every "wireless transmission" hits landline somewhere.

I agree completely with the OP. The Network has everything from old legacy analog equipment and copper, to the FiOS and next generation ethernet muxes and everything in between. They're all in the same building right next to each another. Everything is connected because it's a NETWORK. And the "Landline" employees are the ones who make it work. The term "landline" used to mean everything that wasn't part of Verizon Wireless. Verizon started using it in a derogatory way a few years ago during collective bargaining with the unions., publicly trying to make the case that the "landline" workers were dinosaurs that didn't deserve a raise and weren't needed anymore because of wireless. Nothing could be further from the truth.

It was always the case. People are talking about the last mile

Uhm, ok, you can believe that if it makes you feel better.
