NOTE:  This site uses the word "Verizon" to indicate the unethical company I am writing about.  This company was also know as NY Telephone, NYNEX and Bell Atlantic.

Why This Web Site?

I was a manager with Verizon for many years.  I worked a Central Office in NY.

 I wanted to report a violent employee to Corporate Security but my boss threatened to have HER boss "Fire my A##" if I did.

The violent employee continued with his violence (attacking me and his fellow union workers physically as well as verbally with violent, irrational outbursts of anger and threats).

Eventually security did get involved.  Nothing happened to the violent employee but, through a chain of unethical events orchestrated by my boss, her boss and security (yes, security), and the company Ethics Department, (the most UNethical department in Verizon), I was part of a Reduction In Force not long after the World Trade Center disaster.   They condoned the violence and did nothing to the crazy employee who attacked his co-workers and boss.

Here we have a person with a history of violence in his former location...is violent with me and my people and, rather than taking disciplinary action against the violent employee, the company gets rid of the manager!!!! 

In their Codes Of Business Conduct, the company does not tolerate violence but, in reality, they do!

Verizon does not care about their own employees.  Do you really think you, the customer, is important to them???

DUMP VERIZON AND SWITCH TO ANOTHER COMPANY.  VERIZON IS SCREWING YOU AS THEY HAVE SCREWED ME.
