We're having real trouble getting Verizon Business to pick up routine T1 outage tickets and actually work them, and the general temperature of the techs is frosty. We've now heard rumors of massive (5 figures) layoffs coming down the pike from 2 sources, but nothing firm. Anybody know if they've got a formal work slowdown going on and / or any forecasts as to where this is going?
I can't substantiate this with anything written, but I have had several Verizon Biz techs tell me about "big changes" coming. And I know there were high-level meetings around the holidays. I'm surprised we haven't heard anything yet. -MB _______________________________________________ outages mailing list outages@outages.org https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/outages This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
