The 54 are not part of the 109 :-( 54 are going Business from the Telewest side, then 20 percent from all sides to go which equals 109 engineers. But, most of the Telewest boys are not Dual trained (CATV & Telco), they also have "Core Network Techs", which to ex-Nynex are Activation. so I suspect Telewest bods will take the major hit  |
Which at the end of the day means even less engineers working on the network, Even less preventive maintenance "which i am lead to believe now no longer takes place at all" Even less core knowledge left in Network in the case of a major event. Sad day for those that lose there job and a devastating day for customers who can now look forward to even longer fix times and less engineers to look after the network.
So whats next Engineers flown in each day from Bombay with a sat nav and a electronic dictionary
