We couldn’t get above 36 percent on the company survey
Every day for the past couple weeks we were spammed from my chain of command. We were at 27% that should tell them something and made a 9% jump. To make it sicker were the same useless puppets stating “ I want to hear what you’re thinking “. I... — read more

Who’s ready for another day of sitting in the desk for 8 hours, doing absolutely nothing? It’s all they care about, so why would I care about anything else?

How the he-l did we let TW dump this guy on us? Just get rid of him, he’s bent over ATS enough already, at least try to salvage something.
Is ATT abandoning Cricket Wireless?
Their offers are out of date, non-competitive, and they don't seem to care. Layoffs galore in Cricket.
What the he-l is management thinking hiring smart people then throwing them in random jobs?
We got engineers doing paperwork and analysts stuck in customer service. How is this anything other than stupid?
