The End Is Near!

This company has been total sh-t for quite a while. They haven’t valued their employees in years. Quality of service is tanking. Upper level management are clowns. You can rename sh-t several times but it’s still sh-t. Centurylink was the... — read more 

Purpose of surveys

I know of many people who, like me, never answer the survey honestly. Probably even those at the top know that most are dishonest in their answers. So is there any point in doing those surveys or are we just wasting our time?

Time to jump the ship

It sure sounds like jumping the ship before it sinks would be a good idea here. Every month, they are selling off more of the company which never a good sign! Lumen was a good concept with horrible management, and it shows!

Just an idea or two

It's obvious that whoever is the CEO of this company is only here for a paycheck and golden parachute. Part of my anger with the company is the freaking Shell Game that we are still in. CenturyLink, Qwest, Century-Tel, Embarq. Wherever you came from... — read more
