Heres my take on this whole issue

Yes everyone does have options, but that doesn’t address a problem that faces VZW workers. Why a company that keeps pumping profits and constantly rewards their CEOs with bonuses, pay increases and golden parachutes constantly play with the frontline... — read more

Rename stores to service centers

Can we just do that already? That's all we seem to be doing. People are coming in expecting us to resolve their issues, not to buy something. Let's just make it official.

Is VLSS finally dead? If so, thank God!

You people with time in the company know what I'm talking about when I say - what the hell were the upper management geniuses thinking when they that put this VLSS anchor around our necks?

Stores have become ultra slow

and no one at my store is trending to make a commission check. Verizon is so wrong for how they have screwed the frontline employees out of a living.

What to Expect from Kyle on 8/15

Not much of anything. He'll chat up 5G and some other things. In the end, lot of fluff. He'll ignore most of the questions he asked to have submitted. Bottom line, he's phoning it in until he gets his nice golden parachute. Look for retirement... — read more
