Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Drop in desks

JUST BECAUSE YOU SIT THERE MORE THAN OTHERS DOESNT MEAN ITS YOUR DESK.

If it is designated as a drop in, its first come first serve. I don’t care if your team needs to sit together or you’ve sat there for months. There’s a new influx into the office and we are all in the same situation.

"I’m not the kind of person people go picking fights with. Deduce from that what you will."

Is it because of the foul odor? The icky stains? Are you in a wheelchair?

Lighten up, Francis.

1st choice is to hit the biggest guy in the room your first day. 2nd is join a "team" of drop-ins. 3rd is take your chance every day.

“ They already broke the rule of leaving stuff at drop in desk. Be ready to get into a fight then and be fired.“

There will be no fight.

They will say “this is my seat”.

I will say “there are no assigned seats, and I have been here since 6 AM”.

And that will be it. I’m not the kind of person people go picking fights with. Deduce from that what you will.

"And I advise people not to leave their stuff on drop in space desks, especially after they have been informed several times there are no assigned seats.

Because I am def going to sit there."

Well, have a day you deserve. If you think being righteous and correcting "adult" peoples behavior would mean compliance from them, think about it. They already broke the rule of leaving stuff at drop in desk. Be ready to get into a fight then and be fired.

If you come in early, just trash whatever is on the desk and then go sit on a different floor. That will teach them to leave things overnight on a public desk.

"BTW, now that this has been reinforced and explained yet again by CRE, I am planning on arriving early as I always do and making sure that I choose the seat of someone that continues to keep their stuff there. Just for fun. I can't stand people that think rules don't apply to them."

That is exactly what they want from you. Get into a fight with someone, get fired (both of you), win for AT&T. I advise you to not provoke people. There have been several fights in Alpharetta when they implemented the desk "reservation" a year ago. Both of those folks got fired, police got called and now Alpharetta I am sure there is a heavy police car presence patrolling now.

If there’s a problem with space sit on the floor in the executive hallway. Send a message.

Why are you telling us?

Tell the person that has their name plate or business card up.

CRE had to send another email to all reporting to my location yesterday that all spaces are drop in only, there are no assigned seats, and there should be no personal items left at any space.
