Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

stank needs to get his raise and bonus next year somehow.

With a goal to rid T of landlines, a rate increase will speed the disconnects.

Oh, so that is where my pay raise and benefit costs comes from. Never thought about that.

They're probably claiming that because it's true where do you live?

"AT&T can’t control gas prices, but they can control how much fuel the outside forces WASTE with the insanely inefficient way we are dispatched."

I've an F450. V10. Dually bucket truck.
With a tail wind the truck gets 6 MPG.
They think nothing of sending me 80 miles one way for a cut service wire.
Yesterday I didn't do a job all day, but because I have to look "busy" and can't sit at a company facility I burned I'll bet $70 worth of gas driving around.
I easily put $300-$400+ a week in the truck and they don't seem to mind.
When I ask the boss about no work... "You've been here long enough to know how the game is played. If I get no attention, you'll get no attention."
Ok.

Raise oh what service?

don't have to worry because I don't give any money to att.

T continues to have the highest consumer prices in the market.

Cost of business, you mean Stankey’s bloated compensation and botched m&a adventures resulted the company in massive debt, right?

Prices are going up everywhere. That's what you get when the central bank printed $4½T in the last two years to buy mortgages and federal debt.

The Fed's printing press - best thing besides money growing on trees. We hear about a $30T deficit - well, $6T is owed to the printing press. The country didn't actually borrow the money, except from the printing press. For some reason, we don't get a clear picture of this from the corporate media. I wonder why? 😛
