as those Collaboration Zones were like a public subway station, absolutely disgusting. Surprised there weren't panhandlers in the Collaboration Zones, oh no wait there were. People always hustling money for some stupid cause or trying to sell you a box of overpriced cookies. I also remember the bathrooms had that old school sporting venue appeal to them with dirty sticky floors, debris and trash on the floor, seats covered in ur--e splash, and just filth. I think they cleaned them once every few days or something. Then you had the young hotshots walking around talking on the hands free like they were getting some major deal done. Buddy you work for AT&T and at best you could form a deal with Jerry's Pawn Shop for stolen ink toner. So since Covid I have been just loving life cashing checks and collecting benefits. You can't beat it. I go to the beach, putter around the house getting things done, follow the stock market, and have a nice dinner with my wife every evening. Once the work from home started we picked up and moved to a coastal area within walking distance of the water. Great place to have your morning coffee and a sunset co-----l. Anyway I was gonna retire soon into the Collaboration Zone Fiasco(Another ATT day late dollar short idea) but simply banked all the cash and now the grandkids college is going to be taken care of. I was never higher than a mid level 2 and now have zero direct reports. Just check the email once in a while and chime in with my expertise and cash checks. Thank You America and thank you all you director suckers running around trying to impress your leadership. You provide a nice buffer of confusion and stupidity that the executives still don't get. High of 77 today folks and looking like a few days this week will be sunny and flirt with 80.

I WFH, I get up around 1100 in the morning. Grab some breakfast, watch price Is right, then lounge on the sofa. I watch the soap opera's. Before I know it it's time to wrap up for the day. Once in a great while I'll have a call, but it's rare. I feel like one of those employees that fell through the cracks. I can't think of anything I'm accountable for besides completing the COBC every year.
I'd have to give up my real estate job if I returned to work during the day.
Congrats! You turned lemons into lemonade. I love all the jealousy in the comments. ATT employees want everyone to be miserable like them.
Live your best life. T doesnt care about you.
Best to not add comment to this stupid post. That’s the only way to push the post to archive.
Stankey will kick all telecommuters to the curb.
Keep posting about what you love and they'll come and take it. Think before you post
OP you need to be included in the layoff. You sound like one of the arrogant\narcissistic fools every group has.
WFH has led to the demise of T.
You are absolutely 100% full of sh**.

All you telecommuters will git yers. Just you wait.
I’ve been working from home for thirteen years now. It’s about time you got on board.
Stankey is coming for you, he will yank your telecommuting privledges, that's the way he rolls!
Enjoy it while it last. Covid benefits are ending in May all across the nation. Rents are going up and covid vouchers are going bye bye. Good luck living in rough parts of town.
