Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

When they force me out...

I started at the company years ago going into a different area of work. I liked the idea of getting out of tech spt and the money was good. The people I worked with were great and I've made lots of life long friends. Over the past 10yrs I've had to live with uncertainty of job security. Doesn't matter what I do or how well I do it. Way high up they do some data gathering and WHACK lots of good people are gone. This new direction seems to indicate all of us will be gone soon. Hard to believe that this is legal. An American Company whacks all it's U.S. based employees and replaces them with people from other countries who are here on a H1B Visa or are located offshore. Sad state of affairs.

And.....Don'te ever believe those Mgt people who point at Union people or Union people who point at Mgt people. All of us are getting whacked by some upper Exec decision so it seems to the stock mkt that decisions are being made to save money. Love thy neighbor and don't trust Execs.

When they do.....and they will force me out, I'm going to drop my home phone line, take all 4 cell phones and head to another company. Don't care what it costs.....I won't give any of my business to AT&T.

H1B visas and other policies favorite big corporations because they've bought off politicians in both parties. That's why US government is the best government money can buy.

Yes the mgmt vs union thing is a distraction. We are all targets for offshoring and replacing by H1b visas. And we all need to get VOCAL about this issue and DEMAND that this practice be made illegal.

Totally agree, especially the mgt versus union aspect. Both sides are getting squeezed by execs.
