Wireline safe for November 20th? I talked to a leader and they said they think it’ll be more WLS focused.

Growing up I would always hear colleagues in college and my first few jobs talk about their aspirations and dreams. I would always hear something along the lines of: I want to one day move to LA, New York, Seattle, Austin, or Miami. If international, I would hear London, Paris, Dubai. Never once had I ever heard someone mention: I want to one day aspire to move to Dallas.

Younger folks are often more ambitious as they are in the earlier part of their career. I have never once heard one of them mention Dallas being a part of their dream or ambition. Dallas is the place where people who fall short of their aspirations end up and their dreams die.

Does anyone know, or has anyone heard, if the recent layoffs mainly involve employees over 40 and / or 50?

It was a simpler time.

It was a career highlight for me.

Why is the FBI raiding locations in Dearborn?

There were high level engineers laid off this week. Does anyone know how many?

Is it a coincidence that as soon as Verizon partnered with these two Indian companies everything started getting much worse? Or am I being unfair?

Just sayin.

Hard not to notice — it feels like most of the layoffs are hitting women. Or is that just me?

That this blog is senseless. All the talk about the benefits being slashed… woohoo… no such change! Things don’t have to be as bad as you make them.

What the he-l happened?

Let’s try to keep a list in one place. Based on what people have shared so far, it might actually be easier to point out which orgs seem safe. It’s looking really bad. I’m so sorry we all have to go through this.
