get out people, get out. I left in September 17, best decision I made, (22 + years), no stress my health is back and am so happy. Got a job that pays more and appreciates people and acknowledge you. FYI, when updating your resume, make sure you put that you worked for Centurylink, not Lumen. That is what a recruiter told me, go figure.
Bumped for info from @1mjn+1e5TDAi3.
This reply is for: @aipe+1eqzfzpx.
Look up what a Lumen really is, you can't even see in the darkness with one Lumen, which means company isn't very bright, glad you aren't very bright, good luck f@#$ stick.
This a reply to @5fvt+1eqzfzpx, wow have never met such a high paid employee as you, I hope you bask in your glory and in the end don't forget to look up, so it's clearly obvious you haven't, bye bye mo--n.
Amazing" is relative. It's entirely possible that any other employer is amazing compaired to Lumen.
You take that with grain of salt.
Any other employers are not amazing compared to Lumen.
You could easily walk into another he-l ho-e.
It's amazing how many people quit and say they found the most amazing job theyve ever had somewhere else. <<

FYI,
Lumen isn't going anywhere.
They are just trying to cut ties with services they don't want to invest in. That would be the copper portion.
Lumen is investing in Fiber and Ethernet.
Why don't you look into getting in here.
Copper is dead. You can't raise the dead.
It's amazing how many people quit and say they found the most amazing job theyve ever had somewhere else. So amazing they have to come on this site to beg everyone else to leave too. Why do you even care? You left for whatever reason. No one cares after youre gone. You're replaced and forgotten. If people still work at this company its because they get along here just fine. Because you feel so disrespected you think everyone else does? And thats a character flaw they have? Peeps come on here acting all pi---d off because everyone didnt follow their lead and quit. Pfft. I personally know 7 people on my crew that quit. All 6-7 year tv box guys. Not a single one has found another career yet. Try this job, dont like it. Try that job dont like it. He-l, i've heard some were so disrespected they quit and couldnt get a job now theyre trying to come back as prem techs for 5 bucks an hour less. Probably guys that posted on this site a year ago about how great life was after leaving. lol
There’s a big difference between couldn’t hack it and refusing to be disrespected! You fit right into that narcissistic buffoon mentality! I’d say that if someone worked there for 21 years there’s a good chance you were working at McDonald’s when we first started working there you hero! Enjoy yourself there and make sure you meet those numbers!
If they had only worked there 21 years they were still pi----g their pants when i started. And like you, probably still pi----g them now. No trouble ever making the numbers. Just have to have a work ethic and not expect everything to be handed to you. I guess that's what you get with the participation generation. If its too hard quit and do something else.

You know how d-mb that sounds.
GET OUT PEOPLE! GET OUT!
Where they all going to go?
Be glad you still have a job, healthcare, and roof over your head.
Just polish up for resume or take courses on something you can fall on.
This is the historical demise of many cultures, those elected or in charge of a Country / Civilization / are not content, they want more Money, power, influence on a bigger stage as in the world and will throw the more common folk to the wolves, use them as a means to an end, make them servants rather than a voice, become labor force for them etc.
It takes a revolution, or some type of overthrow to change things. Our issue is in this Era the stage is bigger than it's ever been, China, Russia Iran, all think of themselves as wanting / needing to rule the whole planet.
No sh*t Captain Obvious…you have now completed your therapy session!! This is not just about a job, it’s a much bigger picture than that. Point being….there is no loyalty in the this world any longer and this did not happen over night, heeeelllloooooo!?!?? Just like many worldly changes for the better (as we keep getting told and battered by the so called educated “elites”) It has slowly been changing for 20+ yrs now and we/you are slow to recognize, which is intentional (ie: CRT in elementary)!! We are all puppets, just want the finger pointing and angst to go where it’s warranted, not your fellow puppet sitting in the same boat!! That is when corruption and accountability will come together to push good change. Unfortunately at this point, history shows us, it will probably end under very bad circumstances for all humanity before it can get better…your “narcissistic buffoon” quote against your fellow puppet only exemplifies this thought!
No thanks! Be certain to keep your resume updated when Lumen dumps your narcissistic mind and they have a great career opportunity for you! You’re replaceable!
And guess what’s still around???? McDonalds…go restart your “respected” career there and make a difference hero!!

ignorance breeds hatred and you know who you are. You are the reason this place will fall apart, this country is doomed, as long as you hold onto your inflated ego. you will remain ignorant, angery and filled with your self-righteous hate as long as you remain ignorant until you die.
Pretty much 99% of the people bi-----g on here left because they couldnt hack it. Very few retired and come here to bi--h and whine. Whaaa! "I have to work outside. I have to make numbers. They put gps on my truck so i cant go home or go shopping every day. I cant go hide anymore. I was hired to plug in tv boxes not climb poles and hang drops". But you quit before you could get fired. Good for you tootsie. What ba--s does it take to quit? None. My 100 pound steel ba--s go to work, do my job and come home. Why would i or anyone else who can do their job quit? 100k year, 5 weeks vacay, 8 paid personal days, 8 paid sick days, as well as the med/dental/vision/short and long term disability. None of that goes with you when you leave. All you take with you is your entitled lazy a-s. And to the original poster...How do you quit in september and know not to use the Lumen name when it took effect in November?
What you said above is very true!
Go ahead, give me thumbs down.
You know it's true
Have to agree with last statement, if possible, the Executives and Board would fire everyone and just get Bonuses and vote themselves raises and just hit an Easy button, they are trying as hard as they can to get there, then Storie would fire everyone else except one contractor to push the button.
I agree with the last statement. I go to work to earn a paycheck. I do not go to work thinking how much more I deserve. If the pay or benefits do not work for me; then I would go somewhere else. People post on here like WE are stuck in a Turkish prison with no way to leave. This company just sold 20 states to Apollo and ALL of their Latin network. Now, they only handle 16 states and No Enchiladas (spicy). Do you really think they are going to say We should pay more and offer more benefits to the few remaining (actual) employees? H.ll no! They want lesser employees, lesser pay to management, no bonuses, no raises, more contractors, and no Union. Again, the door is always open and don't make it sound like a f.kn miracle because Starbucks is paying $1 more an hour. Live within your means and don't expect Storey to give you a back massage in the courtyard.
lol bunch of haters, merry xmas a** H*les, good for her or him, at least that person is happy, don't hate just appreciate LOL
You can't hide your employment history.
Your recruiter is full of cr-p.
Besides his recruiter is full of cr-p.
This guy is also blowing smoke up everyone's a-s.
He magically found better job after he left on September 17. Why didn't you get it sooner.
yep angry ignorant anonymous people love the internet they get to show what low-level intelligence does. Others miss the company they gave a few decades to but had to leave.
Well seeing how you had the BAs to leave, why don’t you take your BAs and go do something productive with them…fondling does not count as productive either! Some might look at you leaving as….your nothing more than a panty-weight, entitled POS who can not handle the rigors of life and run at every moment something doesn’t go their way….where has your “leaving” done any good for those still around?? Way to stand on your soapbox; now your not happy with your decision (kinda shows) and your on a Layoff site trying to get someone else to justify your BIG BAs?!!?!? Merry Christmas to all and to BAsy a good night
Most don’t have the ba//s to leave! Trained robots! That company is a shizzhole!
Everybody should quit this shithole company. Plenty of other jobs out there. Get out after the new year, take all your vacation time with you.
You can't hide your employment history.
Your recruiter is full of cr-p.
