Thread regarding CenturyLink layoffs

It's a great day, to no longer have to work at CenturyLink.

First Monday not under CenturyLink control. I have my life back. I am no longer being held hostage. I would highly recommend taking the enhanced RIF. It's a great day in my neighborhood.

I left that piece of c-ap company 8 months ago and life could not be better!
Finally away from a ridiculously lazy manager...
No more putting my life on the line working on liebert units, generators, power distribution plants!
Just FYI for anyone
For anyone interested in staying in the business and live in the Midwest Everstream and Crown Castle are hiring!
No metrics,No worthless CEO,
My HSA came with me FYI
I saw someone ask about unemployment... Can't hurt applying. That company is so messed up they won't fight it. They don't know what they are doing.

Pretty sure the HSA goes with you. It's under federal rules like a 401k, not a CenturyLink thing if I'm not mistaken.

I too am an escapee of that hole. What I can't seem to find out no matter how many phone calls is, what happens to the thousands of dollars on the healthcare reimbursement credit card? Do they steal it? Do they send it to you in cash? Does it go in the bucket? Nobody can tell me. Nobody on American Shores or offshore. Was on the phone with someone for over an hour today that doesn't speak English and suddenly got cut off. Too p-ss-d to call back.
