Dish is looking for money for their rollout. Given AT&T’s bad decision making Dish probably talk AT&T to finance it.

It’s official now. Working at AT&T has become ridiculous.

It's so disrespectful and it's starting to deplete my morale. I can't wait to find another job so I don't get any more after-work calls. It seems that such calls are not rare here at all?
