What about PT 1st level management?? They should have been first to go. Most were Techs that couldn’t do their job and

say they got promoted. Good luck with that.

This is a shame! Especially with the big push in selling entertainment and the direction they want this company to go in. Anyone that has sold a DTV knows you only want an prem tech installing it because if it’s a contracted installer it will only be installed 30-40% of the time.
