If you are an employee that doesn't know what Webphone is, it's probably time for you to go.

25th amendment requires Cabinet, VP, and 2/3 of House & 2/3 of Senate to agree. Much higher threshold than impeachment.

A quick ‘Politics 101’ lesson. Only Congress (not the Senate) can effect a 25th Amendment attempt to replace Trump from office.....the reasons are far ranging and too many to go through. But a Republican Congress does not appear to have the fortitude to proceed, it would take a real blunder to convince them to pull together on that effort.

For any hopefuls, on that score, you will have to wait until next Nov. 2018, to see if Democrats take back the Congress....that would be your last best hope.

Trump can't do this but Obama did do it? Are we in to the shallow end of the gene pool here?

Webphone is an internal phone directory of AT&T employees. It shows the supervisor of the employee.

25th Amendment will stop Trump, and if that won’t, my e-petition will!

OP, I was an Infrastructure engineer in ATO who was laid off in 2015. I have an engineering degree and a Masters in CompSci. Being laid-off was the best thing ever. I now make 3 times as much as I did at AT&T and I do much more interesting, fun work now. Try to get your Amazon AWS certs. You'll be rolling in job offers and money if you do.

There’s articles littered all over the internet for pro- and anti-25th amendment use and or success. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/trump-could-be-removed-for-political-incompetence--using-the-25th-amendment/2017/09/12/b6c62380-9718-11e7-82e4-f1076f6d6152_story.html it’s up to his cabinet on whether they want to go down that road not a news outlet. Remember all the new outlets that also opined Trump wouldn’t win? We know now that Tillerson called him a “f---ing moron”.

25th Amendment is not unseating Trump.

Trump should stop Time Warner deal which will only make it worse!!!!

AT&T will stroke his ego and get the deal approved before he’s impeached or removed from office under the 25th.

These are ALL high paying jobs. STEM jobs. Not retail or field techs lower paid. AT&T does not create domestic STEM jobs anymore, all that gets outsourced or offshored. Trump should stop Time Warner deal which will only make it worse!!!!

I thought the number will be more. This does not count how many people retired. The number is probably more. This will cover the losses that AT&T faces from subscriber leaving in Q4
