Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

FAKE HEADLINE AND STORY! Stankey wouldn't have allowed McElfresh to win the TV

Lots of coffee and donuts, served through 10CT. Everyone gathered around the conference table at 10CT. Randall won the mountain bike, for finding the most change in the couch cushion contest. Meeting went on for the next few hours. Biggest issue discussed, telecommuting. At 12CT, a drawing for the 75" tv was held, MacElfresh won the tv. Lunch was served 1215-1315. Meeting was restarted at 1315CT. Discussed best way to reduce employee numbers. Attrition, incentive offer, layoff, rebadging. No decision reached. Next item on agenda, start visitor tours daily at Whitacre Tower, estimated revenue $2B annually. Meeting ended at 1500CT.

There was no meeting.... fake news.

Was there a meeting? If so what was it about?

It’s now the McStink leadership regime!!

Thank God our technicians are protected from layoff by their union contract. Not much Santone and Stankey can do. They could pony up an offer, 3, 3, and 1, but they wont.

What the heck did Stinky say?

I did 3 jobs this week. 2 came in at the end of the day. I've got 58 hours in for doing maybe 8 hours of work.
Dropped $200 of their $$$ is gas looking busy driving around.
The managers hide us because they need the headcount as not not get canned.
33 years in.
What a company!!!!

Layoffs?
Or buy outs and please leave by Sep 30?
There are 3 or 4 personnel in my crew that would go.
Multiply that across the company
SAVINGS

Meeting was a waste of cash. Nothing here that could not have been communicated in an email.

I wonder if technicians will be in for a rude awakening with unforeseen layoffs in areas of the country that you would have never guessed would be hit? Management keeps telling us we're continuing to get busier and will need to hire more technicians once the hiring freeze is over, but what if none of that matters? What if ATT has the ultimate goal of reducing head count in order to reduce payroll so that overall operating and employee expenses can be reduced? You never know what they're thinking or planning!

Sounds about right, let's penalize the customer. Fiber build out on hold, it takes 6 fiber complaints in a given area to roll a truck. No OT on copper plant. No new connections to copper plant. What about all the technicians that were hired for fiber build out? I wonder if management will continue to tell employees to be patient, work will come soon.

what woke foolishness must we embrace this month? cash flow doesn’t matter, bills are for suckers. let’s stick it to the stockholders again, we got away with it before.waiter, free drinks all around

In NC was just informed: no new connections of existing copper plant, uverse single or bonded to include N order or transfers, fiber build out plan for 2022 to cease until further notice. No copper dispatches on OT, fiber troubles must equate to at least 5 troubles in particular area or zone before a truck roll,

MacElfresh won the 75" flat screen tv. Not sure but I think both contests were rigged.

“Chris Licht told his staff that big changes are coming whether you like it or not. Total transformation is coming soon”

Effective immediately: all company restrooms will be transgender friendly. No exceptions! Stock price.be damned

Good old years of "2020" vision. All its evangelist were 'retired' already. Such a clown's bunch.

Randy won a bike with the seat taken off for comfort.

Chris Licht told his staff that big changes are coming whether you like it or not. Total transformation is coming soon.

Randall Stephenson is in attendance. He found $2.13 in change in the sofa cushions contest. He may be the winner of the mountain bike!

John Malone is an attendee.

The Stink is hosting yet another silk Pajama Party!

Coffee and donuts gone, meeting set to start at 10 CT. Drawing for television set at noon CT. No word on mountain bike winner yet.

Was Whitacre Tower sold and leased back to at&t?

There’s probably many reasons that employees wouldn’t know the address of the HQ building. The large majority of employees don’t work in Texas and have never worked for Southwestern Bell, so they probably wouldn’t be that familiar with AT&T buildings in Texas. Just like most from SBC wouldn’t know where the locations of the HQ buildings for BellSouth, Ameritech, Pac Bell, Legacy T, Directv, Warner Media, etc. are/were. All of our W-2’s still show the original payroll companies along with our benefits, so it’s not like we ever see the address for our HQ anywhere, unless you specifically go out of your way and look up the CEO in webphone. Besides, most of us are concerned with our reporting location and any other local buildings we might have to use and have no need or desire to know what street in Dallas that our HQ is on.

I found $1.27 in the green couch cushions on 21st floor. Not sure if this will win me the mountain bike, but I'm hopeful.

WELL? WHAT'S THE NEWS? JUST MORE FAKE POSTS?

How do people not even know the location of their company's HQ?

Says who?

Think with the Stink!

Stankey will be wearing his trap door Jammies!

prob approving working from home permanently.

not good

Everyone attending will be assigned a specific couch, located in Whitacre Tower. The person that finds the most change in the sofa cushions will win a new mountain bike.

Coffee and donuts provided by Stankey tomorrow at Whitacre Tower. Come as you are. Drawing at noon, Stankey raffling off a 75" television. Must be present to win.

to Post ID: @jwu+1ihTvE1V: Stated what 6 months ago?

Bad news is released on Fridays!!

Brian Stelter out at CNN as I stated 6+ months ago!

Maybe they are trying to determine if they are going to sublease the 36th & 37th floors. It would take the entire c-suite to make that decision.
It’s not like we are dealing with people who are very good at
Reviewing the data and making an educated decision.

Akard St is T HQ buildings.
Corp official could be anyone in the company depending on circumstances.

We want facts people. Generalizations help nobody right now.
