I am disappointed this morning to find nothing at all ( at this writing ) from the CWA in any mainstream news feeds. Doesn't collecting dues obligate them to at least a little vocalized indignation?

Meaning that if you lost your job at AT&T, would you definitely lose your shelter or possibly have trouble covering your fixed monthly costs?

Any downsizing?

We are big, we've seen a lot of areas affected, but what areas can we determine were not touched, or only very lighted hit? I guess that means if you weren't cut today, then maybe they'll get us 4Q20

Anyone Surpluses announced in FlexForce?

Anyone know if all notifications have been done in Chow org today? What if you didn’t hear anything?

I thought Stankey wanted a flatter organization? Is this just more supervision of fewer workers?

I retired last year, worried about old coworkers. CSE? ASC? Fiber? ACQ?

Carriers have been a constant game of musical chairs for the past 10 years. If you've been let go, count your blessings. ATT eats you live from the inside out as you fear loosing the golden handcuffs that keeps up a house of cards. Let the house... — read more
