May Day is a name for various holidays celebrated on May 1 (or in the beginning of May). The most famous of these is International Workers' Day, which is the commemoration of the Haymarket Riot of 1886 in Chicago, Illinois and a celebration of the social and economic achievements of the international labor movement.

The 1 May date is used because in 1884 the Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions, inspired by labor's 1872 success in Canada, demanded an eight-hour workday in the United States to come in effect as of May 1, 1886. This resulted in a general strike and the riot in Chicago of 1886, but eventually also in the official sanction of the eight-hour workday.

In countries other than the United States and United Kingdom, r...

The double promo does not get dropped on two year contracts, only one year contracts, and yes, activation fees are still waived. There are a couple of other small changes too.

To answer your question, we are not to be sharing this information here. If someone here that claims to work for uscc really does, then he/she can find the information on the olr.

As for project everest, we have all been sworn to a code of conduct that requires confidentiality so if you would like to be the first one to get fired, then go ahead and talk all that you would like about everest. I would not suggest it however unless you have already put in your two weeks or wanted to go and work for another carrier.

So totally must be from a different market than chicago and that is why she says that they are getting rid of the double promos because this is not the case in chicago. Either that, or she is getting her promotions confused because of all of the information that we are getting bombarded with and the changes to take place in july, and she might not be able to handle it all.

As for alejandro, if you do not know anything about project everest, i am sorry, but it is probably better that way. It does exist, and if you worked for uscc, then you would probably have some clue.

This is all that we ask here.

Alejandro loves the attention, and while i have already given him more than i would have liked to, i will not let him get under my skin as he has others because that only gives him the satisfation of thinking that he has achieved what he has set out to accomplish and that is to prove how childish we all can be.

They don’t have to do this for us, I don’t know about you but I like to know when things might change in advance so I can learn about it. If they take this Privilege away because someone doesn’t take it seriously you are going to kill it for the rest of us. I just think its great that they do this for us, and really childish that the first second someone get some info they go and post it on the web. You needed a password and login to get what you copied and pasted right?? so im sure that what people had worked for they dint intend it to show up on Phonescoop before it was ready

idiot, there's a difference between giving out customer info and everest. Everest isn't really that important so really it provides no use to customers. You all have your panties tied up. Loosen up some more. And just cause you need to make a login and password doesn't mean it's privledge, considering some sites require you to make a login and pw, just so they can have more users added to their site. Again this is really not a big deal, so go out and smoke a cig before you give yourselves a heart attack!

You have to log in on phonescoop to leave a comment......does that make what you say top secret? This is stuff that anyone working for uscc should have access too. Just because you work for corp doesn't make you special. You are another cog in the machine, just like anyone else.

I work for corp, and I see how agents are treated. How can USCC employees proclaim strict adherence to one policy but break others? I don't understand the concept. Is it separate but equal?

Although I do see your point, there really is nothing too damaging about that post. Its not like he mentioned anything about the new plans in detail. We change our pricing all the time; that really is no shocker.


But on a larger level, if USCC wants people to keep everything top secret, maybe they should shied things a little better. Putting a disclaimer on a web training program does NOTHING to deter people from reposting it. You don't even have to agree to the disclaimer to access the site...it's pretty pathetic.

I don't understand what everyone is crying about. We are supposed to be "One Team, One Goal". How are the agents supposed to keep up to date when all of this stuff is kept under a shroud of secrecy? Because they don't have the OLR, they cannot access the information that allows the corp reps to stay up to date. This wasn't all that big a deal anyway, I've been hearing about this since last year. Who knows if it will even launch? I remember when speed talk came out we weren't able to even call it that until the launch. Until then we were inly able to refer to it as "A walkie talkie type feature". Quit freaking out over BS, you still get your sales even if the agents know whats going on.
