In ten years T will be simply a pipeline. Fiber pipe and a wireless pipe. That is the only way this riderless ship can survive. If you think you can make it through this journey: Good luck. Or just abandon ship .

I'm so tired of this management

The entire essence of AT&T revolves around the insufferable pride of the management. They possess an infuriating inability to acknowledge their own fallibility and always refuse to admit the slightest hint of a mistake. Instead, they conveniently... — read more

Clearing up falsehoods about RTO

Upcoming Layoffs

Craft in the southeast will be offered another voluntary termination in exchange for $50,000 on June15. Do not know about other districts, but I caught wind of this in Atlanta after a vendor conference.
