 NOVA_GuyObamaCare Kills AmericansPremium join:2002-03-05 | From the inside... I have two friends that work (still do...) at WorldCom; one of them is a manager. He was given a list of his employees and told that he needed to eliminate 20 of them; he said it was the worst experience of his life.
Needless to say, he's now got his resume out on the market, no trusting his "luck" with the next round of layoffs to hit the company... -- "Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are." - Meat Loaf, Bat out of Hell II |

 | reply to NOVA_Guy Lets see, that must have happened in all 31 markets where WCOM offers DSL (704 COs acquired from Rhythms) Having transferred the remaining Legacy Rhythms field techs to local managers suddenly only 14 days before WCOMS local managers since they did not know us, laid ALL of us off. And know, getting back to DSL, there is no one in the field who knows anything about hands on support of the equipment your DSL end point talks through to the Internet. Hope nothing breaks down in your central office. This will also effect Speakeasy, Bitnet, and some DirectTV users. |

 | I am an ex Rhythms customer in one of the wcom co's, never even got re-connected!! Was meant to reconnect yesterday with DSLi using wcom as carrier, received notification yesterday morning that " service won't be available at this time due to facilities restriction until 9/30". Luckily if it all collapses I am already well experienced in the use of 56k again!! |
