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

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.

I’m just here for the paycheck

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
