Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Book club

Got email that they care so much about us and our employee feedback that they are having a book reading.

They just don't get it.

In the last Employee Survey, many of you emphasized how important it is to feel that AT&T truly cares about your health and wellbeing. We heard you—and we’re taking action.

....blah, blah, blah stuff about your work-life balance being a priority...

We’ll share a bit about our personal wellbeing journeys, preview what’s coming in the program, and introduce a book we’ll read together as an organization.

My group's not having a book club. We are doing a office wife swap though.

"The silence of the lambs" because Legg apparently likes it so much

Legg is definitely a sick person. I also heard him quote that at some town hall thing. Might have been the end of year holiday one and if so, makes him even sicker.

I do not RTO in the fall.
I do not like RTO in the hall.
I do not like RTO at all.

Are panel moderators needed? I would love to apply and represent my hub.

I nominate "Leaders Eat Last" by Simon Sinek.

"Simon uses the phrase “leaders eat last” in reference to a common practice in the military. This practice would be that the highest ranking officers would be the last to fix their plate at mealtime in order to ensure the people in their command were fed and cared for."

The book club won’t be mandatory but participation will be considered for rankings. You no play, you no stay.

I heard we're going to read "The Toxic Workplace" by Mitchell Kusy & Elizabeth Holloway.
Case studies on toxic personalities we-ponizing systems, plus what it looks like when the entire org is complicit. Should be motivational.

If it’s mandatory then reading it is on company time. You get 8 hours a day out of me. Pick wisely.

I am looking forward to the book club. Discussions will be collaborative.

I heard the book is going to be "The silence of the lambs" because Legg apparently likes it so much that one of his favorite quotes is from it.

Plus they just like to silence people anyway.
