Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Backfilling Leg T ?

Anyone know what’s taking so long to back fill these NTS guys that are retiring? Our work is backing up and we are missing commitments. Excuse after excuse

Backfilling shutdown in ATS, at least in the US. Wouldn't be surprised if still allowed in India, Mexico, etc.

Why would there be backfills when remaining managers can cover down?

It’s an everything job out of region - field and office. It’s a home garage job (for now) where they expect you to cover field ABFS/LNS/TELCO23/OSP locations and drive off the clock to be at your barely manned CO on time every morning. Not going to happen. Park the trucks if you don’t like it. Southeast management doesn’t have a clue what we do or what to do with us. But some backfills after 3 years would be nice.

Lol, that’s a field job. There’s no office to RTO to.

If you RTO and actually worked, wouldn't have to backfill anything.

No backfilling until they reduce headcount by 20%

What about the watermark in the Leg T/CWA contract?? Already a couple hundred below! Where's the accountability, enforcement and remedy?? Arbitration and mediation is a f'n joke!

“ They are waiting for some guys to die during a locate”

You can bet your bottom dollar those “dark triaders” are hoping & praying (to Old Scratch) for many to buy the farm. Anything to avoid paying severance.

You won't be seeing position backfills. You will be seeing approved overtime.

Here's a scoop = Leg T to be combine with Lumen and Blackrock and be sold to pvt. equity.

CWA backs the big T with Justice Department, and gets to negotiate one big beautiful Union contract that sc--ws everyone.

CWA gets more dues paying members - AT&T gets to waste more money and sc--w more consumers.

They don’t want to offer SIPP to the guys with 40 years of service. They are waiting for some guys to die during a locate
