How to say that I am not feeling well?
Is it okay to tell your boss you aren’t feeling well and need to take a sick day because of medication side effects? We are going into the office later in the week and I don’t want her to think I have something contagious. Started new meds and the... — read more

Heard all were offered exit offers. How many are left??
Lot of talented employees leaving soon
Once again , att executive mismanagement screwed the pooch. They wanted many to retire and get off the books. Well, they got their wish and then some. It’s clear the company wasn’t prepared for the mass exodus that’s occurring as now they are... — read more
Stock Price is tanking because there is

AT&T Long Term
Clearly the 3rd quarter earnings did not move the stock upwards. AT&T most likely be broken up into its components and absorbed by its competitors. Wireless is the prize and could be taken over by Apple and the fiber picked up by Verizon. Stankey... — read more
As an Investor but not in ATT
Stankey still remains aling with a legacy base of lemming executives. The talent pool in the middle ranjs has been decimated over the years. The threat still remains that with a little wind in its sails, improvement in the balance sheet, that there... — read more

Regarding the earnings report. J.P Morgan told Stanley “investors don’t believe you”.
No one fell for it and it’s just a further race to the bottom from here on. https://www.barrons.com/amp/articles/att-stock-earnings-51634813994 Even the analysts on Thursday morning’s earnings call, normally a supportive group—“great quarter... — read more
Pension question

Union mandate exemption question
Hello, I recently put in my own exemption request in about a week ago . I just wanted to know had any union person received an approval for an exemption request as of yet.
Helpful Notice or Targetting?
Just received an "educational" email from HR about the impact interest rates can have on your pension. Most already know this if you are anywhere near retirement age or passed Math 101 so guessing this was intended to incent anyone still on the... — read more
Hanging Up On AT&T
AT&T stock looks as cheap as ever, but there are no catalysts to bring out the value in the near term. The media spinoff will still lack the scale to compete with giants like Netflix and Disney+. Supply chain issues are slowing phone sales... — read more

Vacation changes for 2022
Anyone heard of any vacation/time off changes coming next year? Friend on another team/org said they heard it’s changing again.
Stock would have been higher without WMD
Stock would haven higher, if WM was let go instead of the WMD merger.
Stock continues to plummet so layoffs and cost cutting can't be far behind
I am starting to see some older people leaving to make sure they are out as to not get hit with losing healthcare subsidy loss, etc. As the dust settles it seems logical (although T mgmt rarely does anything logical) Stankey will follow through on... — read more
Bonus / the new Quantam Immediate bonus structure
Not sure what it is really called, as I have yet to know of anyone receiving. Curious if ANYONE received a bonus throughout the year for the immediate recognition of a job well done - that is how it was sold to us at the beginning of the year... — read more

And I Quote: The Opensignal report states that, in testing between June 14th and September 11th, T-Mobile averages a whopping 118.7 Mbps in download speeds when connected to its 5th generation mobile network. That’s more than double the second-place... — read more
Can Stankey and Kilar save Holloywood?

Digital Life partnership with Brinks
Since ATT will sunset 3G in early 2022, DL will likely become inactive shortly after that, though it may function for a bit on wifi for monthly monitoring. Rather than transferring to Brinks, will there be a way to keep DL "active" locally without... — read more

Market Value versus Debt
A debt load of a $180 billion, and a market value of $184 billion. Stephenson and Stankey really put the company in a ho-e. They will have to borrow even more money for spectrum auctions and fiber build out. Meanwhile Stephenson is home with $200... — read more
The solution is simple
How do we fix AT&T? We need to cut either half of the C-suite or cut the entire C-suit's salaries in half. Then we reduce the dividend some more and stop share buybacks altogether. We'll solve all of our financial issues quickly and painlessly -... — read more
October 11 is in the rearview. Anyone hear of COBC violations, due to vaccine?
For management, our drop dead date was 11October. We had to be fully vaxed and "die papieres" loaded into the portal. I know several who filed for and received the job accommodation. In fact, I don't know anyone who didn't get approved? Just curious... — read more

At what age did you run into age discrimination?
The age limit seems to be shifting and now much younger people become victims of age discrimination here. Unfortunately, we seem powerless to do anything and stop the age discrimination. The only hope is that karma will hit them back.
