😨So according to the recent reports Benny is shooting for Mid March for FTR’s filing for BK. The day the company officially announces (files) the LUMP SUM is locked. 30+ year techs probably only have just 1-3 weeks to file to lock that LUMP SUM🤯😰😳😲😯😱🥺 WHO KNEW???

You gotta be a real loser to tell someone to go work at Walmart.
Anyone with enough points should leave. Take your lump sum and get a job elsewhere. This whole notion that you are too young to leave or you love your job too much is just an ignorant position.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is a good chance there will be no union workers left in 5 yrs at this company.
Knock N Run is right! You're still here AFTER 30? Thats your fault! Go as soon as you are eligible. Hope to make 5 more then I'm gone like a fart in the wind
Why? Because they are too lazy to talk to a qualified financial advisor. They would rather ask their union steward who probably doesn’t even know what a qualified IRA is.
If you are retirement eligible, why risk losing the lump for a few grand in extra earnings if you stay? That lump can make serious gains in the market right now in a qualified IRA.
Ok Boomer. 👌
If you still have a lump sum you need to get out now or risk losing it all. I have friends that work for another telco (Windstream) and they filed bankruptcy toward the end of February 2019. There were guys who filed their retirement paperwork in early February 2019 (before the company did anything) with an official out day of March 1 and they didn’t get their lump sum. All they get is their annuity. Get out now if you can. Work at Wal-Mart and use that income to pay for healthcare and live off the lump sum.
😂
If you are someone with 30+ yrs and you are STILL working at this dump then I don’t think you care. You aren’t going anywhere.
