The only thing big bird knows how to do is cut. There is no innovation. He is completing buybacks at multi year highs (terrible decision) simply to line his own pockets on his way out the door. He doesn’t care about the future of this company as long as he can squeeze every last ounce of personal value for himself as possible. Remember who you’re talking about. The most selfish person to lord over this once great company. Now it’s trash.
The damage caused by the 8/1/25 email can never be undone. Stinks response to his employee base was “You don’t matter”. He doesn’t care about your social, emotional, or mental well-being. The lack of understanding, recognition, and value has fully contributed to the disengagement, anxiety, and fragmentation…. So the real question is, why would he think doing these things would help improve the stock and bottom line?
Now adjust for inflation. But first get a g-n, 2 bullets, and a shot of whisk-y ready.
Market-based leadership in action!
Buy Tesla stock. Elon knows how to run a company.
I don't own T stock. Just complaining for a friend.
Going back below $20!
Fu-k John Stankey
At least he cut the dividend! That helped clean out anyone left with a 3 digit IQ that was holding AT&T stock. No amount of stock buybacks can fix that.
Per the Stank himself, employment here is market based and based on the historical stock price and lost shareholder value, he should be first to go (today)!! Sadly, we all also know his posture on the rules is, “ Rules…they are for thee, not me!”
The buybacks are what drove the stock price higher. The emperor’s do not know how to get anything for a fair price, they only know how to overpay as it makes them feel special. Must be from all the inbreeding.
