    looking to see if service delivery district other than
    the Washington, D.C. district lost use of thier company cars
2353.5Home/Business Phone LinesMSDOA::JENNINGSThu Feb 11 1993 21:125
    Haven't heard anything about company cars, but the Field Engineers
    in the Carolinas District are up in arms over being told they have
    to give up their home/business phone lines.  From the way they're
    talking, it'll cost DEC a lot more than $19./month in extra costs
    and customer satisfaction...
2353.6Clarification of .1MSDOA::JENNINGSThu Feb 11 1993 21:165
    I should have clarified .1 further.  These F.E.'s all work out of their
    homes...  They gave up their office cubes months ago and agreed to
    work from home.  Now DEC is basically telling them to use their 
    personal phones when they're on standby or have to call the Remote
    Diagnostic Center, etc., etc..

re: .6, Jennings

Let me see if I understand this -
   F.E.'s who have surrendered their offices in DEC facilities (one would
guess, as a business decision in DEC's best interests) are now being asked
to shoulder some of the expense of doing business from their own homes?

   Is this correct? Can we get some more details? Which brilliant VP can
we promote and reward for this braindead move?

2353.9Wheres the Beef ?KAOS::TURROMake it so number 1Mon Mar 08 1993 00:1011
    I hate to ask but whats the problem ? Im in the field with one phone
    at home I still have an office to come to( no cubicle though) and have
    a DEC issued MCI card for long distance calls . Any calls to dispatch
    are 800 numbers so are dialins to CHAMP so whats the problem ?
    
    
    	Im not being sarcastic but doesn't this cover all the scenarios you
    could possibly have.
