Hate to break the bad news to you... ... NOBODY CARES... ... it’s the truth... ... Monday morning comes and nobody will be missing you... ... they’re all happy it was you and not them... ... you got no cards... no going away party... no gifts... nothing... ... you’d be lucky to get a Thank You.... ... your Boss even avoided you on your last day... not a kind word or a good luck... just silence ....

I wonder if AT&T is turning into a Nazi concentration camp.
Head Down
Always answer yes
Work hard
Eager to please leadership
Numb to others in trouble
Silently pray Nazi guards don't slot you for extermination

Nobody cares about you when you are here either so what difference does it make.

Well, I care. Almost half of my team is gone in this round. I even cried after I heard the news. I avoided to talk to them over the weekend, so that I can pretend it's not true. But on Monday when I called them one by one it's still feel soooooo somber. Sure we'll still be friends, but this workplace is gonna to be lonely at least for a while. I was not thinking that it was lucky it's them, not me. Actually I was thinking it's better to be me who got impacted, not them. They have a family to feed, mortgage to pay, but I don't. I am single in a rental, I am still young and can get another job perhaps easier than them, so if it falls on me, it would be much easier. Everyone of my colleague is just so nice. It's gonna take me quite a well to recover.

Well I had a great time playing Pokemon Go Fest 2020 this weekend. It was a blast. And on Monday I still have a job. Working from home. Software engineering R&D folks. Great pay. Easy work - when you're a genius like me.

Go away trolls. People I've worked with at AT&T are decent and caring.

You have up to six months to get your retirement gift and to have a party/dinner with family and friends.

They Care! I got a Sams Club sheet cake, Yummy! And everyone signed my Good Luck Card. That cake was soo good, cushioned the blow of losing my job cause the buttercream made me forget that i cant pay my mortgage. My Co-workers care! They said they would keep in touch so I am awaiting all their calls and texts.

When I was laid off,I was also considered retired by AT&T (Pension eligible) which meant I was entitled to spend up to $500 for a retirement dinner up to 6 mos after off payroll date. It required that my boss pay for it on his corp. card. He kept making it difficult to coordinate because the dinner would take place outside business hours. I never got my retiremet dinner with my family and close friends.

Actually... They had a parade for me today. And a Going Away Cake. Got a ton of cards wishing me well. Many of them with crisp $100 bills in them. We went to Giggly Bar for lunch. Tonight, I get to go to a 15 minute fireworks display in my honor. Just wondering if we all worked for the same AT&T?

Then why are you posting on a board that is specifically and explicitly about layoffs?

Truth, and your boss can't wait to stay on and help make the cesspool live and thrive.
