On behalf of all managers in Dallas, Atlanta and Jersey, AND ALL OTHER LOCATIONS, we demand an apology and your immediate resignation. Your closing comments on your town hall this 8th of April were unprofessional, reprehensible, and completely... — read more 

Broken Average Hours report will update tomorrow

Are you ready? Will it be accurate? Of course not! Will they take time away from your presence by creatively rounding your minutes? Not to mention the time you spend looking for parking and a place to sit, will you ever get that time back?

Accelerated downsizing

How is it possible that AT&T has so many unprofessional employees still on payroll after the surplus activities? I see people here night and day publicly trashing the company.

Supply Chain Surplus

Pre notification surplus given yesterday in supply chain for WA, CA, and MO. Some will be backfilled in Dallas and Atl, some will not.

Security Key

I’m a hard pass on driving my personal vehicle an hour round trip to pick my security key. I gotta keep my average hours looking good! But you can bring it to me, if it’s that important to YOU.

McSelfish open Mic

Who’s going to ask the tough questions? Where do you feel the company culture and employee satisfaction are at today? Where’s the McKinsey survey results? Employee morale is at an all time low. What’s leaderships plan to change that? Post... — read more 

WFH still works

WFH still works. I have proof because i’m doing it right now. All the kings horses and all the kings men, can go pi$$ off because nobody in our org has to follow this lame RTO they are still trying to push!

So frustrating

Every time they hire a new "manager," it's like they picked someone at random. No experience needed, apparently. Now the team has to train them while they make calls that set us back months. But hey, what do we know – we're just the guys who do the... — read more 

Roll Call

Just for fun, where are you all from? I'm from Georgia.

So I got Fired today…

Keeping it short, got fired for Performance. Basically I didn’t offer Wireless on my calls. They told me I wasn’t eligible for Unemployment either. I’m guessing I’m not eligible? It was my fault tbh. Having callers complaining about their bills... — read more 

D9 offer

Any one know what yards and titles that are getting offered? My local confirmed but hasn't shared information

Real motivating

Just hit 20 years at T and wow – the only "reward" is more work. I heard a coworker was walking out but suddenly stayed. He gave no details, just offered some vague "better offer" talk. Meanwhile, the rest of us grind with zero recognition. Classic... — read more

CWA District 6

Give me one compelling reason to strike. And it ain't work boots and eyeglasses.

To those of you who may get laid off..

I too was once laid off about 6 years ago and I thought it was joever. Nearly had an anxiety attack but with the extra time I had I went back to college and managed to transfer into an Ivy League university. Got my bachelors and entered the labor... — read more 

Silent firings due to RTO

Lost someone on our team last week due to nonconformance of RTO policy. Manager was shocked as there was no warning, just a phone call the day off, telling them their employee is being terminated. Remember, we mean nothing to the company, treat your... — read more 

Is this another Hawthorne experiment?

Is this RTO just another experiment, similar to the Hawthorne experiment in Illinois? Sure seems like it, is this just another way for at&t to garner publicity? I suppose time will tell, we will have to wait and see.

Jack and the Giant Slayer on Lenova T1’s

Jack and the Giant Slayer is one good movie let me tell you. Watched the whole movie in the office today with my Lenova T1 glasses. Not one single person had an inkling of suspicion because I have been desensitizing them for 2 weeks. I am patient... — read more

I used to have the best job in the world. Now I work for a company run by id10ts.

RTO is a melting candle of life itself

Each morning, we get into our cars and begin the slow unraveling of precious hours, leaving behind the warmth, comfort and love of our family homes. The monotonous grind begins on congested roads, where miles stretch endlessly, a cruel prelude to the... — read more
