Any other managers get an invite to attend a training session on how we can help control AT&T's unemployment benefits cost? Seems a little fishy considering the current goings on in the company.

Didn't seem terribly interesting. They covered what types of separation are eligible and what types are not. Talked quite a bit about keeping any documentation of how things occurred. They also said to be careful what you say when separations are occurring.
To be clear, an involuntary surplus separation is eligible for unemployment. If that's truly what happens, the company won't fight it.
I would be interested in what the training covered? It definitely seems fishy and a sly way to try to "get" people who are rightly owed unemployment by the company. My friend in the Missoula site said that she heard (all rumor of course) that the state of Montana is starting to get suspicious with all the claims there coming from such a small area.
Oh PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE fire me for some bullsh!t with this info coming to light! You will be able to hear the knocking knees of the scared sh!tless subpoenaed 1st levels as they sing a song of unfair labor practices on the stand at the 'ME vs REALLY, REALLY STUPID AT&T' trial! BWAAAA-HAHAHAHAHA!
May be those AT&T's area managers with high school under their belt, should volunteer for that!!! Now that would make sense
Yeah this is pretty low....if true...id be worried about my karma trying to inact something like this. Maybe not today or tomorrow or even several months ....but stuff like this catches up to you.
Surprise, surprise. AT&T is so horrible. Of course, with all the layoffs and terminations, they don't want to have to pay unemployment. Ugh. Disgusting.
That good ole "frugality initiative" seems it knows no bounds.
Could you report on what the call or training covers? Would be good info considering my manager just stopped responding to me about everything.
