When do we get our daily update on the union leaders bedtime with no other negotiation info?… lol
Its so hard in this economy
I couldn’t imagine missing an entire month of pay. A lot of people suffering for nothing. The offer was more than reasonable and you know it. Destroying your finances will take you 8 years to recover from. Is it really worth it?
They don't care
The ultimate goal is to push toward reducing locations by forcing people out of undesirable locations via firings, forced attrition, etc. This will allow them to offer jobs only in the demographic they want. This slims down the real estate and... — read more
Territory - what’s up with all these changes?
Seriously, I don’t know how many changes there has been in the past what - three weeks? First the door knocks, now the consistent micromanaging? Jeez, I gotta get out of this company. There is no consistent paths and honestly, with these strikes... — read more
Fire the SE strikers? Yes it’s legal
I think this should be on the table. The contract is up and the ridiculous demands (in my opinion of course) are so far apart , apparently the union leadership apparently doesn’t like the benefits and working conditions of the company anymore. As T... — read more
Life's so much better now
Gone from T for six months and things have improved on all fronts. At my new workplace, things get done quickly, without all that unnecessary hand-wringing or worrying about management’s egos. Meetings are brief and straightforward. Politeness and... — read more
Boeing workers vote overwhelmingly to strike, in defeat for troubled company
Join the club, everyone is tired of the elite enriching themselves and laying off workers while expanding scope of work for those left. AT&T is no different than all of these other corporations that have the Lords and the serfs mentality.
Stankey weekend
Only our fearless leader stands between your social security number and the dark web. Only Stankey can purge the retail base of it's discount members. Only Stanky can navigate our changing seas. Enjoy the weekend and don't forget to pay homage to... — read more
T truly is a toxic workplace
Every morning I can barely drag myself to work and I dread what day holds for me. I have a horrible manager who is everything but helpful and competent, but makes sure to breathe down our necks and watch our every move. This behavior screams... — read more
Union Leadership
Union leadership has failed to communicate progress or ask for membership feedback on proposals the company has offered. This has created trust issues for employees who are going a month without pay. Crossing the line is happening everywhere... — read more
Another outage - Att problem connecting to Microsoft
why does this keep happening under Legg?
Stankey's inflated Compensation
AT&T CEO John Stankey's $26 million in total compensation for the previous year surpasses his contemporaries at Verizon and T-Mobile after a committee adjusted his long-term target compensation by $3 million.
Please stop train and rip my ticket!
I have come to know that Ticket on Ride efforts is runaway train. Please take my ticket and I will instead take bus Are you kidding the he-l out of me maam? Who runs this train and whom do I know is feeding the train with coals? Stop it! Stop it!... — read more
U.S. Mobile
Even if you want to stay on the AT&T network, why would you ever directly use AT&T service? U.S. mobile is an MVNO. I was paying more than $70 a line for AT&T's cr-ppiest unlimited plan. With U.S. Mobile I pay less half that! I get all the same... — read more
Jobs get prioritized by the most important and most necessary to be done first.
So managers, think about that when you wonder why you have been reassigned from your normal duties to strike coverage. Hopefully this will give you some realization of reality and knock your big heads down a few pegs.
CWA WEST
National Executive Board approved a strike. Its on the CWA President's desk ready to sign. You think West will strike or what is CWA pulling here?

Management to Tech Pathwat
I’m currently on assignment for contingency and have really been enjoying the work. Being outside has been a nice change of pace. Is it possible to move to a technician position permanently?
3rd Quarter layoffs
October is the next phase of wave 2. Tell us the numbers for Legg org. Is December the last phase for Wave 2? People in the know tell us. No guesses from random people.
Your experience with job hunt
I’ve been trying to leave T for a while now. I’ve been working in T for three years, and I have had enough. It's a very toxic workplace, I haven’t had an opportunity to learn anything new or progress in any way, and beyond a couple of great... — read more
Techs please come back
This strike goes well beyond union employees. We are all struggling to put food on our tables right now with hardly any installs. A lot of us non union (chose not to be apart of the CWA) sellers are getting beat up and management doesn’t give a fu-k... — read more
CP Training
After being in the CP training for the third day now, you techs are a joke. I can splice fiber with my eyes closed now and I can't wait to fu-k some sh-t up drilling holes in walls! Every customer will have their modem installed in the furthest... — read more
They're all the same
I worked at Verizon before I joined AT&T. I changed jobs specifically to avoid the toxicity of my old team and having to play politics every single day if I didn't want to be fired (not laid off, fired). I've been here for two years, and I'm dealing... — read more
LAY ME OFF ALREADY...
been waiting for the opportunity to leave ATT with a big fat check in hand and to date, crickets! There are so many techs willing to retire early if given the opportunity along with a severance check, but T is too cheap to pony up! I’m sure Zi... — read more
Tick Tock
The other mouse is about to drop, soon! Let’s go D9, hate to waste all that qualified CP training, Stankey wants to put them to work, he only cares about his 3 million dollar raise.
West is walking
D9 is going out soon. Prepping is already underway and leaked.
Service Rep here
SE Strikers. You are having a huge impact on at&t. Customers in the SE are canceling in droves. People moving are getting installation dates 4 weeks out. We are missing a massive amount of appointments. The contingency workers are completing... — read more
Severanced earlier this year. Best thing that happened to me!
Just wanted to let y'all know that there is a great life beyond AT&T. I cherish the memories, but am happy in my new world. Wish all of you the best (well, except for The Stink, as he made so many messes)..... Also want to thank AT&T for the... — read more
Is the west going to walk?
If not then can we go back to work as we work out our agreement like they are?
I’m just here for the paycheck
In the end. That is all that matters. No commitment to my leadership ( liars, cheats and steals). The company no longer cares about the employees (wonder if they ever did?)
D9 Dist vs Locals
How many locals in D9, and how many of those locals voted down on the TA?
I’m having a hard time convincing myself to stay at T
I’ve been here for a long time, and I accumulated relatively decent savings. But I’m fed up with bad management, current culture, and probably burnt out as well. I still have time to retirement, going for early one is not the option I prefer. I would... — read more
Real reason for RTO?
Has any CEO actually come out with the real reason for RTO? We know “collaboration” is just a convenient excuse. I read something about tax complications but it didn’t make sense.
Surplus day 9/15
Will there be surplus for non-management in SE during a work stoppage 9/15?
What are the fields on the Presence report?
Since we don't have access to this report to enforce RTO, does anyone on this board have access and willing to tell us exactly what is being reported?
T Stock 21.5
Thanks John!!
Explain like I'm five - Why are T and CWA apart?
What does CWA want? What does Stankey want? What are neither of them budging on?
Letters
L2 letters have been sent out. I met with my manager today—feels like the calm before the storm. Just to clarify, I'm not moving to Dallas.
RTO Presence
From the How and where we work FAQ. Why the f*** are we traveling to these other offices ??? • If you swipe your AT&T badge, connect to AT&T’s LAN, or AT&T company Wi-Fi (ATTCORP) at any AT&T office location, your presence will be reflected in the... — read more
