Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

@q5 i am the OP, you daft. The one who wrote "just like other boomers" not me. Clearly, you're too basic to even understand the differences of my post and other peoples post.

@cx
You said 'Just like all the other Boomers'. Now you want to doublespeak and change your narrative. The boomer generation did not create the economic mess we're all living through.
The average American hourly wage back in 1981 was around $3.50 an hour, interest mortgage rates were above 18%. And the vast majority of boomers (who made it through the Viet Nam war), were grateful to have a job where they had to travel 20-30 miles one way everyday. My Dad was one of those people.
Houses were cheaper and more plentiful but it was a stretch to afford homeownership, just like now.
So don't blame a whole generation for your disdain for an uber wealthy CEO.
Blame the corporations and politicians and the voters who support policies that always adversely impact Americans but you probably support.

Those born in the 50's and 60's and earlier made the company what it is today and were instrumental in building foundational technology such as the laser, UNIX, developed information theory, advanced information theory which laid the foundation for digital communications and also the mosfet transistor to name a few that became the foundation for today's Tech companies. Gen X, Gen Z what have you done? Read much?

@jg you need to read between the lines. Seems like you never developed that skill. I wasnt degrading the boomers. I am exposing this boomer who used everything he had and exploited the time that he had, right place at a right time... and removed all the ladder from everyone, yet preaching to us how we need to compete for everything, when this failed boomer never did, him and McEflresh. He should have been thrown out a long time ago after him failing as a CEO of Warnermedia... but nope. Hes even more powerful now and a chairman of the board. Boomers are loyal, hardworking people, this one? An opportunist with no morals.

@cx
Puzzling post. Do you think the vast majority of the Boomers who are still working are doing it because of greed?! What a fool you are! I have a friend retired, but still working at age 78 because property taxes, health insurance, food, utilities, gas have all risen. He'd be living on the street if he didn't continue working.
Corporations cut the legs of pensions for American workers not those employees who were fortunate enough to work for corporations who offered them, those born in the 1950s and 60s.
Capitalism and Oligarchs shook hands and destroyed the opportunity for a comfortable life for the middle class and retirement, not your former colleagues, neighbors, or senior citizens.
For pity's sake, educate yourself!

Excellent post.

@OP is correct. I’ve never thought of it this way.

He’s never had to be challenged in an environment where AT&T wasn’t pulling the strings of this CEO/Puppet.

Rules for WE but not HE.

Just like all the other boomers, completely destroyed the bridges and ladders they used so no one else could use them. The most selfish spoiled generation in history. Let’s see their fallout: pensions - gone, offshored everything to get ahead, career ladders - burned, destroyed the housing market, destroyed the country really. I mean they completely burned everything to the ground after they got theirs. Notice many are still working despite being well past retirement age. History will not be kind to their generation.

Stankey is a POS

Nice AI post, can’t even write for yourself?

The cream always rises to the top

Not when it is spoiled. It develops a sour smell and becomes slimy.

Stankey will make AT&T great again.

@ae why didnt i do this way? Because I wasnt born in 1962. Need a remind you that Stankey was the CEO of the failed WarnerMedia company that he sold for a huge loss? Thats not smart. Thats id--tic.

You sound very jealous...Stankey sounds like a smart guy and did it the smart way instead of being a drone slaving away like a serf, why didn't you do it this way ?

Sc-m also rises to the top, and with the person in question, it is more of an appropriate idiom.

Direct quote from the Stin** breath.

“Me big large man. Me even know HBO and Netflix make money. I big large man. Thank you.

Don’t forget “me big large man”

A good leader recognizes when the job market and work environment changes and adjusts accordingly. #Forthewin.
