Chickens saved at the sla-ghterhouse
After yesterday's 10% cut I can't help but think that all we are to this company are chickens saved at the sla-ghterhouse. We are good until the next round but at the end of the day we are still chickens.
Our manager gave us the all clear yesterday
Should we worry that there are more cuts today after all? Could he be wrong?

Any update on layoffs?
June 17th announcements in CA
Retail L2s were notified. They are just not rushing to post on here. Prayers to all those impacted.
Pacific Territory IHX (California) Unrealistic Expectations
Just had the new AVP for IHX on a call today and the hypocrisy was next-level. He opened strong — energetic, excited, leaning hard into “we trust you to run your business” and “enabling leaders.” Sounded great. Then we got to slides 2 through 16: a... — read more

Unemployment Eligibility
If your job relocates and you decline to move with it but have the time to retire, would you be eligible for unemployment benefits in the state of Alabama. Does receiving a severance package play a factor?
Nothingburger
As much fear and angst that have been posted on tbis board for the past few weeks about the 17th being doomsday and the small number of posts today, this sure seems like a nothingburger with a small number of people impacted.

Was a good run, I will miss all you good people I've come to know.
GES sales

American Telephone and Telegraph - Range Rover???
So why does John Stankey drive a Range Rover? Shouldn't he be driving a Ford, GM, or Buick? Disgraceful
I'm relieved I got let go last week
My boss made every single day miserable. I'd take the income hit over dealing with his leadership any day.
Genuinely curious if anyone out there actually loves their job at T and what that even feels like
I'm asking because I honestly can't remember what it's like to not dread Monday morning. If you actually love what you do, what's your job and what makes it worth it for you?
