We're having real trouble getting Verizon Business to pick up routine T1
outage tickets and actually work them, and the general temperature of
the techs is frosty.  We've now heard rumors of massive (5 figures)
layoffs coming down the pike from 2 sources, but nothing firm.  Anybody
know if they've got a formal work slowdown going on and / or any
forecasts as to where this is going?
