“Telstra's decision to axe jobs at its customer service centre in Lismore is devastating, the city's mayor says….
Ms Dowell said she had been personally assured that jobs in her city were safe after Telstra closed its Grafton call centre in 2011.
Most Lismore locals would know someone affected by the job losses, she said.
"I understand that at this call centre there are couples, a husband and wife who will both lose their jobs," she said.
"The ripple effect of this is huge."
So far Nats MP for Lismore Thomas George is keeping mum on the subject of 116 local jobs being flushed down the drain by a telco whose "net income climbed to $3.41 billion in the year to June 30".
