WTF is this sh-t? Is this even legal?

We were just informed that managers operating any vehicle that may contain buttons, levers or any mechanical switches to refrain from touching them. After the vehicle accidents within the last few days the company realizes they have a 3rd class of... — read more 

CWA "fighting" for better benefits and getting paid, while we stand in the sun on a picket line and get nothing. Seems really fair doesn't it? Before anyone starts with this "you knew it was a contract year and should have saved" cr-p, some of us... — read more 

Back to work ATT! Find your inspiration! Provide a value!

Just got an email this morning telling me to report to the local hub. Told we're going to do a day of retraining to "catch us back up". They're giving us 100% commission relief for the month and $1500 a week on top of our salary. But we're being... — read more

I mean, who would accept to relocate for a company which is badly managed, chaotic, and where leadership does nothing to generate revenue but excels at cuts just so stock value isn’t shot down? You relocate, pay for it, move your whole family, sc--w... — read more 

Got word from our AVP under Legg that they are going to implement in office monitoring starting soon. Apparently only 22% of people are staying the whole day vs. cutting out early. Not sure what the ramifications would be at this point?

The FCC is off to the races! Dinging AT&T for deceptive pricing just got put in the back seat and outages are riding shotg-n. As the network decays, be prepared for HUGE fines and new regulations. Doink!

Any truth to the rumor that a manager reportedly passed away yesterday, August 22nd? Just curious, no one needs to die doing this.

Seriously. If you’re crossing the picket line, and your job ain’t being done, and the company still humming along, what does that say about the need of management? Lay off the dead weight management. Hire a 3rd party leadership company to run the... — read more

AT&T has released public statements about the SE bargaining positions with 15% raise $500 one time cash payment, kaiser Healthcare plans and some other benefits. Have we seen what the SE CWA wants above that?

Are the union dues I paid over 10 years going to be repaid to me at my current wage?

I find all of this CWA stuff kinda humourous. Shows that the union only cares about wireline employees, while grifting and under representing mobility. Literally has a union president tell me that they can't really help much with mobility, because... — read more
