I've been here long enough to remember when the AT&T name actually meant something. People respected this company. Employees were proud to work here. That's gone now. The culture is different, the leadership is different, the way they treat us is different. The only thing that's the same is the name on the door. Don't defend this place based on what it once was. Judge it for what it is now.

@dx , are you an escapee from the circus freak show? No doubt you’re a weirdo ate up with bizarre tattoos, piercings & dyed (clown) hair.
Think about this daily during my 2 hour commute to the office.
@bb ok grandma time to get you to bed. This post is embarrassing. All the olds staying up past their applesauce dinner and 4pm bedtime to rage post on the good ol days.

@b3 True. Nobody is landing a job in the labor market.
Agree... Have you seen some of the new hires? Tattoos are all over their arms. And these are the people who are supposed to represent AT&T. That is a damn shame.
@ap The U.S. labor market under Trump.
@ap Money. The ONLY reason why anyone stays.
Why have you stayed?
Sounds alot like the ongoing saga of every other Ma-bell regional no longer around. Noone is talking about the absorbent debt (tax writeoff) yet, but when they do...
OP-
100%
From Day 1 SBC was all about driving costs out of the business. Zero focus on innovation. The wireline good ol' boys kicked all the Wireless leaders to the curb and the first "surplus" followed almost immediately. Nothing has changed since 2005.
