Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Dan the wee man...

This is a great site. Really.

People come here with good questions, stupid questions, and occasionally questions so id--tic they achieve a kind of accidental brilliance. That’s society. We live with it.

But we also know this forum has a dedicated HR “team” reading pretty much every post and repost. And, apparently, the “moderators” occasionally lend a hand by making particularly effective posts disappear.

Not insider trading. Not NDA material. Not confidential information.

Just good, sharp criticism of the current leadership.

And my favorite feature—arguably the best health indicator on the entire site—is the down-arrow brigade.

Mention a particularly sensitive subject and, within minutes, the arrows start raining down. You couldn’t ask for a better diagnostic: someone hit a nerve.

And apparently that nerve belongs to the oligarchy.

So, to the HR “team” and the helpful moderators: please, keep it up. The disappearing posts and instant downvotes are remarkably refreshing. They tell us far more than you probably intended. Like that is gonna fix your problem

And to the people running this place: you’re welcome.

We’ll keep asking the uncomfortable questions, poking the obvious holes, and—apparently—keeping your lazy as--s employed.

Try not to delete this one too quickly. It’s almost a compliment.

@OP Well said. Some of my previous posts also disappeared, then I realised yeah, that one must have resonated so badly it scared someone. So if they think deleting unfiltered criticism is helping Verizon, oh my god, Verizon is truly sc--wed. It is also the reason I began to despise Verizon's so called leaders - execs, PayPal minions, the clueless incompetent and ineffective BOD, and the army of sleazy VPs, Sr Dirs and Dirs.

I despise how they represent Verizon, I despise all the braindead M&A's and the resulting humongous debt as memorials of their lack of strategic vision and competence, I despise their ability to fabricate rosy tinted financial results powered by layoffs, stock buybacks and ever growing dividend, I despise their tiny bone dry ba--s, I despise their tasteless kitschy logos, AI generated slides, amusement park colored company identity and re--rded adverts.
