Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Don’t Forget

The damage caused by the Stinky 8/1/25 email can never be undone.

For most employees, the message was loud and clear: your concerns don’t matter. Your feedback doesn’t matter. Your time, family, commute, and quality of life don’t matter.

Whether Stink intended that message or not, that’s exactly how it was received. Totally thoughtless, inconsiderate, unstable, emotionally charged, and power drunk.

The result of Stinks decisions and policies has been years of declining morale, disengagement, frustration, and a workforce that feels increasingly disconnected from the people making the decisions.

Now another survey is coming up.

Don’t forget how Stink responded the last time employees spoke honestly. The reaction said more than the survey results ever could. We now know he’s totally unstable and a loose cannon.

If you believe trust has been damaged, say it.

If you believe the culture has deteriorated, say it.

If you believe rigid policies are driving away good people and hurting engagement, say it.

This is one of the few chances employees have to be heard. Use it.

None of this has mattered for the last 40 years in particular. What has changed recently (post 2020) is the amount of people truly realizing it! Even more perplexing for the people is how fast this game of life is being re written for all generations, as we speak! The whole world is in a mental health crisis and we are seeing it play out in real time.

@bw Stinky Winky’s feelings got hurt by the awful survey results last year and sent a nasty drunk email to the entire employee base, blaming them for his shortcomings.

"Don't get your feelings hurt so easily. Be a real man."

Sage advice for Stankey. He definitely was butt-hurt when he got the survey results last year.

Maybe you could get a job as a sales clerk in a clothing outlet. You may have to update your tattered wardrobe. Cheers

You can choose to not take it. If most others don’t and engagement falls below 50% the results are invalid. However, if you don’t provide feedback it leaves the results to the false positivity of the bootlickers who are afraid to actually speak their mind.

The only thing that really matters is whether you decide to respond to the survey or not. He thought that a 70% response rate was good. Not engaging is better than responding at all. Regardless of what you respond, they will either ignore what they want or work hard to put a positive spin on it, like they did with abysmal engagement last year.

Don’t forgot, when his message started to get external attention, Stank doubled down on his message during an interview. He stated that his only regret was that he should have done it sooner. That right there tells you all you need to know about this so called POS leader.

I have taken my last survey for the company in June of 2025. I will never take another again going forward after the feedback was blatantly ignored in the last one.

Non engagement is the only strategy that can work with an abusive and manipulative partner. The complaints and vitriol just make them feel more empowered over you. They don't deserve your feedback. Stop giving it to them.

It has been said before but the surveys are just a gauge of whether you are miserable enough to quit or so miserable you may go postal. The sweet spot for attrition is between those two. If they don't get their data to make this determination they will panic. That will at least be entertaining.

Yes, leadership gets very pushy about a “voluntary” survey.

Ignoring the request sends a bigger message. If they push or threaten, then respond.

The only way to win is to deny management the feedback it ignores.
