and reminisce with co-workers about the old days when Marathon gave away free generators, cokes, gym memberships and lucrative raises and bonuses for work that consisted of drinking coffee, licking stamps, envelopes, and certain unmentionable body parts of their boss(es).
Hopefully enough of these artifacts will take the VSP to make the involuntary slaughter next week less painful for the ones that do the work.
I'm not naive, it's clear they have a list long enough for the next several rounds. The question is how deep do they go into the list for this round.
Stop being niave. The list of involuntary terminations was done before the announcement. No matter how many codgers quit, over100 old Marathoners are going with them.
Or maybe Apache will give everyone the boot
Those "old codgers" taking the package will save your sorry butt from getting the boot.
I only come here for the comments. I show up to work on Friday for the popcorn.
Few people in the tower today. Most of the old codgers are flexing or taking a sick day to update resumes and linked in profiles. Don't worry, Walmart needs door greeters for the holidays.
Amen! And u are among the ones who does the work. How about the time spent to post comments?
The deadline for VSP is noon on Nov 11 and the deadline to be accepted for the VSP is Nov 16. That being said, involuntary layoffs could begin at any time as some would not be dependent on the VSP decisions.
Do the involuntary layoffs happen next week or the following?
