Real motivating

Just hit 20 years at T and wow – the only "reward" is more work. I heard a coworker was walking out but suddenly stayed. He gave no details, just offered some vague "better offer" talk. Meanwhile, the rest of us grind with zero recognition. Classic... — read more

Lost someone on our team last week due to nonconformance of RTO policy. Manager was shocked as there was no warning, just a phone call the day off, telling them their employee is being terminated. Remember, we mean nothing to the company, treat your... — read more 

Is this another Hawthorne experiment?

Is this RTO just another experiment, similar to the Hawthorne experiment in Illinois? Sure seems like it, is this just another way for at&t to garner publicity? I suppose time will tell, we will have to wait and see.

Jack and the Giant Slayer on Lenova T1’s

RTO is a melting candle of life itself

Each morning, we get into our cars and begin the slow unraveling of precious hours, leaving behind the warmth, comfort and love of our family homes. The monotonous grind begins on congested roads, where miles stretch endlessly, a cruel prelude to the... — read more

Reorgs coming?

Hearing some talk at the water cooler of more reorgs. Anybody hear anything?

What’s your honest opinion of CSO? Our team is getting hit with a lot of compliance work lately, and it’s starting to wear us down. With limited resources, it’s been tough to keep up. Just wondering what are your thoughts?
