Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

@zv they are in two different time zones. But the time zone isn't what determines the date in which a sun outage happens just the time of day. The latitude the down link site sits on is what determines what day they happen....she 1 and she 2 are not only on different longitudes they are on different latitudes. So the sun outages for both sites happen at different times of day and different days. There is only a slight window where the possibility of overlap happens.

Here is why it may NOT be true..

MacDill is a high-frequency environment. A massive dish farm (which relies on receiving clear satellite signals) usually avoids being directly on top of a major military hub to prevent EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) from base radar and communications.

@ab There is a also Super Head End in Bloomington Illinois as well… SHE2.. Redundancy. Should never have put it there though.

We experience sun outage interference for a few weeks alternating from both sites. They should have put it in a different time zone… Not sure how you get that wrong but whatever. Lol.

I could see them making the move because it takes up such a small footprint of that 700,000 square footage but.. I guess in time, we’ll see if it’s legitimate won’t we?

Until then, no need to be a touch hole.

CBVR PROJECT #: VZW.119.20 is for a cell site on a water tower at the base, you can literally Google it.

Why would they move the headend to an air force base? They aren't closing either of the SHEs, at least not yet. Will there be a day fios no longer offers a video product? Probably. But it's not this day.

@q9 in a large corporation like Verizon. Every employee is assigned a "cost center" and "location. Cost center is a budget for each department and location and temple terrace which likely still has the early 2026 budget, is tied to a hybrid policy. If you go to the building, and you head towards the loading docks, you will see box trucks. They are literally gutting the place in front of your eyes. You don't auction off things like monitors and desks and chairs and CAT6 cabling if you plan on keeping the building. It may not close within the next week, but by the end of May, the office will be complete empty. They don't have any active development permits for the building for a 700,000 square foot building. It is standard to have a fire safety, electrical or mechanical permits to maintain the building.

So is it closing for real or no? Why are they hiring for brand new departments then out of this building for hybrid roles???

jeeeezz WTH is this nonsense convo . STFU both of you… I am buying TT, end of the story. NEXT PLEASE

@at The FCC regulated the service Verizon provides. Like airwaves, signal quality and consumer protection. It does not regulate their real estate profile and their assets inside of their buildings lol.

@at this is all public record. I am not suggesting this to be true. This is all verifiable.

@ag never argue with an id--t. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

@ae The FCC frowns upon what you describe here and VZ would be paying hefty fines if any of this were attempted.

@OP Temple Terrace isn't closing, dummy.

@OP This all makes sense now. They will park all of the airplanes that they bought from Frontier at the Air Force base. Absolute genius move by VZ. When do you think the planes will start flying out of there?

@ag you're absolutely right. Temple terrace is staying open and the building is in the best shape its ever been. In fact, the building is in such good shape, they've decided they're going to auction all of the chair and desks and monitors and replace them with brand new macs!

They're also going to redo all of the plumbing and the electrical so that's why you saw the blueprints in the Recycling bins.

Also, the changing in sunbiz principal office locations Verizon wireless Data centers LLC to basking ridge from Temple Terrace is a 4D chess move so they can pay higher taxes.

In fact everything is so great with that building that they are planning on adding 4 more floors to it. Verizon as you know are looking to spend more money on real estate right now, that's their strategy for 2026 and forward.

I'm glad we got a genius like yourself working on SHE right now. God knows Verizon needs high IQ people like yourself working on critical infrastructure.

Temple terrace is in its golden age right now, you hit it on the nail.

@ae you have no clue how this works and I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain it to you.

@ac hahahahahha looks like you will have a lot more time on your hands for a new hobby instead of working on SHE now. Btw, it’s not a VZW asset, it’s a Verizon Data asset.

You think "VZW" only means Verizon Wireless. But in the 2026 Verizon corporate structure, "VZW" is the internal SAP/Project Management code used for almost all major network infrastructure projects in the Florida region.

The Receipt: Official Florida Governmental Utility Authority (FGUA) documents from February 2024 explicitly list "CBVR PROJECT #: VZW.119.20" in direct relation to construction at MacDill Air Force Base.

• The Project: The filing specifically covers "Hybrid Fiber Cable" connecting Verizon assets to a "RAD Center" (Radio Center) at MacDill. Because the SHE (Super Headend) relocation requires massive fiber "backhaul," the project is managed under the primary network code for that region: VZW.

While the SHE is technically a Fios (Video) asset, the Global Network & Technology (GNT) group manages both. Since the 5G network and the Fios network now share the same "fiber backbone," they use the same VZW project prefixes.

Update your resume lol

@ab zzzzzzzz

@aa I don’t need to look up what it does because I have been working on it for most of my career with this company. I know what it does. You don’t. And it’s not moving under any BS VZW project because it is not a VZW asset. Stick to sales because it’s clear you know nothing about the network.

@a9 accordingly the Verizons own technical filings the superheadend (SHE) is the single point of national content aggregation. Where satellite signals from 13 different dishes are encoded and sent out to the entire country.. so yeah the OP was correct. It is the brains

@a9 I noticed you didn’t respond to my statement of it being moved away from TT. You just attacked my knowledge on what superheadend does. I gave a generalization of what it does. And I am not wrong, you can look it up and it will tell you just that. I didn’t realize just how delusional the people who work at that office really are. It’s worse than I thought.

@OP The fact that you call the Super Head End the “brains of Verizon Fios” says that you have no clue, zero, zilch, nada what it actually does.

@OP but it’s not closing.

@a4 at the surface it's easy to say who gives a cr-p. But people that report to that building have created schedules around them commuting to that office.

Hey knock it off with this templo BS...who cares?
