Retail DOS & AD offload coming
Get ready for the wave. Most retail DOS’s don’t do anything anyway and offload all of their work to retail ADs. Fits the narrative of top heavy employees that provide no value or change to T. I’m sure you notice you have targets that you won’t be... — read more

FCC Accepts SpaceX Bid for 800 MHz Spectrum, Clearing Starlink Mobile's Path to Carrier Status
Good luck guys!
Digital Assist
All your DOS’s saying that it isn’t going to replace your job. Go ahead and open copilot and ask it if it is going to replace you. Directly- no it will not. Indirectly yes, it will. It will scale how any man hours are really required per transaction... — read more
Where is post on virtuals getting notices?
Where is the weekly post from the employee who seems to always have insider information on virtuals and their relocation notices.
Anyone else want to be on a surplus list?

Stankey kicked out of Augusta National
Told the board there they were doing it all wrong. Said they needed more eyeballs on The Masters and thus needed to add celebrities to the field of players with him being one of them. He was escorted off the grounds with all privileges revoked.
Is there a more arogant CEO around?
Stankey seems to have decided that the only person worth listening to is himself. Everybody and everything else is to be ignored. And how did that work for us in the past years?
Stop breaking yourself for this company
Why are you ki-ling yourself trying to meet expectations that keep changing? They'll run you into the ground and then let you walk away without a dime.
Got Called Out And Dinged On Presence Report

What do you keep saying at work?
What's a phrase you repeat all day at work that would make absolutely no sense outside the office? I'm curious what everyone's go to line is.
Can’t take it anymore
I’m so sick of the call center environment and people sitting next to each other on competing calls seeing who can yell the loudest so their voice gets through. How the fu-k am I supposed to focus with 4-5 people sitting 3 feet away from me all... — read more

SpaceX is in talks to buy Boost Mobile or use its network, giving Musk a potential back door into the $235 billion wireless market
As much as I despise the Muskrat,, I gotta admit this is a smart strategy. An outright purchase maybe with a financial value around $3-5 billion with a potential strategic value to Musk/Starlink @ $5-10 billion Boost's primary network is AT&T, with... — read more

Don’t worry about Starlink. We have RTO.
Our focus is on badge swipes for RTO and building a new campus no one wants because nobody really needs an office anymore. We even sell the service that enables WFH. But don’t worry it’ll be loaded with a bunch of junk that nobody will use because it... — read more

Moving anxiety
I am moving my family to hub as a single earner. I am very anxious as I don’t know if I will have a job after move. Lost a lot of money due to poor financial judgment and this seems yet another one. How do I convince myself this move is good?
Anyone safe anymore?
With continued workforce reductions, does tenure, performance, or loyalty actually protect anyone? We weeded all the low performers out - who is left?
What Would It Be?
If you could tell Stankey one thing, what would it be?
NJ WARN
not only layoffs coming in Nov, it will include enough NJ employees to trigger NJ warn
Strong Quarterly Earnings
If we are delivering strong financial results, why are workforce reductions still happen?
