Another surplus - when will this end?

I'm so tired of constant layoff news. Can we go a single month without having to go through the torture of waiting to hear if we got "lucky" or not and still have a job? It's tiring, it's mentally exhausting, and it's too much. When will it finally... — read more

Promotions?

I’m being serious. AT&T promotes id--ts. Look at them. There are some very competent people, but there are also complete mo--ns in management and higher technical roles. How are you a technical seller and have no technical skill? It’s like if you are... — read more
