Planning is dead body with money bag.. some are good but most are just brainless id--ts waiting for vendor slides and just have vendor present their plan to call my planning job is done, these dead weights have to go… keep some actual engineers who does the daily work on equipments and nw platforms hands on.

@h2 Is it though? I think the FCC has something different to say about that for the moment.

It is kinda funny thinking about Dan stripping all that wire and rolling up to the recycle center in a faded red and white 1951 Ford F-1 half-ton pickup truck.

@ep unless you are a block away from the antenna...it will never compete with fiber...not even coax...I signed for it and the most I ever got was around 70mb down...went back to att fiber....maybe FWA works out for areas where there is no fiber service...until then fiber is king

@dc 14 up votes in 6 hours? Proof that everyone is busy and hasn't seen this yet. It'll take off as people log off for the day and pull up this post.

@dc A slightly less cynical take is that you own, at best, an insignificant share of this company and therefore you should approach your job in a mercenary spirit. If they want to implement a strategy whether, fully baked, half-baked, or totally insane, you should implement it vigorously and make sure the higher ups are apprised of your efforts then move up to the next step.

Go along to get along! Don’t be a hero and try to convince them that their strategy is flawed or that you have a better strategy. Remember the company doesn’t belong to you and you’re disposable.

@OP If you’ve been around for a while you’ll notice that making bad decisions that have a detrimental impact is no impediment to career advancement or longevity. You just have to play your cards right.
1- Come up with half-baked idea
2- Put pressure on the yes-men and women and their teams to implement post haste
3- Trumpet the great success regardless of actual results.
4- Get promoted or move laterally before everyone notices the actual results. Let someone else take the fall
5- Repeat at step 1
