Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

There is more concern with the Fonts, Colors, and

Charts on the Powerpoints than actually recognizing problems and have a solid course of action. Its as if Powerpoint, Conference Calls, and Zoom Type meetings have replaced kicking azz and getting things done. Bt the time the powepoi t reaches the executives those who know how to get it done are 4 steps removed and in all the up and down the chain back and forth time is wasted and the job is half azz at the end of the day. Those Directors, AVPs, abd VPs worry more about the showroom than the factory.

I get people blasting this post but I have seen countless people stress out over the look of a deck rather than the content.

No. The original post makes an accurate point. Sometime around 2015 AT&T exchanged traditional text-based communication for icon-laden presentations with shaking hands, upward pointing arrows, and so on. No point can be expressed without a corresponding icon to visualize the action in the statement.

It is very much like illustrated grade school literature.

PowerPoint is just the enabler, not the problem

I'm guessing this is the guy that has a strong and irrational hatred of Powerpoints. He pops up here from time to time, goes off on long tangents about how the Powerpoint has singlehandedly brought down a once mighty giant. It's downright weird.
