Tape Release September 29, 2017

I would like to acknowledge the following members whose last day of work is today due to their voluntary acceptance of the enhanced severance offering that was contractual by the recent force reduction. They have given many years of service to the Company, our customers, and community as well as serving various roles in our Union. On behalf of the Union we congratulate them on their retirement. They are the following:

Dan Chizuk                Network/carrier        49 years of service

Gerry Kelly                 Network/Carrier       47 years of service

Regina McCloud       Network/Switch        44 years of service

Russ Todd                 Network/Carrier       43 years of service

Mary Roll                   Network/Switch        32 years of service

Glenn Miller              Network/Carrier       31 years of service

Jules Guasp               Network/Carrier       30 years of service

Bob Jennings            Sales and Service       48 plus years

Janice Rubsam         Comm. Coordinator  48 years of service

Added all up they have given 372 years of combined service to the Company. To put it in greater perspective that’s 773,760 hours of labor. We wish them well.
