With those kind of hiring numbers and lay offs, it seems to me that they had senior employees train younger, less expensive (in salary and medical cost) replacements and then lay off the older, more expensive workers. Less vacation time, less pay, less family headache, less everything. It's a win/win for Verizon. It's been done time and time again. I'm not sure why everyone's arguing Repubs and Dems above, other than they just like to do it =/. They do this stuff in blue and red states. They do it here in WA, just like they did it in NC when I lived there, too. It sucked every time they did it and every where they did it. |

It took senior people making 90-120 base and laid them off to employ (me and others) at 47-60k base salary in Massachusetts.
Then after 3 years, they laid us college kids off to employ even lower paid fresh graduates in Austin and San Antonio, because Texas cut them an even better deal than MA did I believe.
