Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Even he was surprised anyone would sit around that long listening to the drivel.

“ That was one lame telecast Wed 4/24. Stankey and 3 dummies. Stankey said we are a $17 stock and that is where we will stay: I believe that is the max it will be as long as he is CEO. What does that ugly woman on stage between Stankey and Desroches do?”

Sell it, it’s garbage, like I’ve been saying for over a year.
I hold 0 of it, I get it I sell it I buy something else. It’s just cash.

We need a CEO link Elon Musk to come in and make meaningful cut to get the price above $17.

"Turn this into a profitable company."

The company is turning a profit and has been for decades.

Oh no, just wet my pants cuz I heard the word "debt".

Clown show that’s a disgrace to the legacy of so many in the industry that gave so much only to have RJS and Stnk pi-s all over it.

it struck me as wrong live.
re-watching it, i see he was trying to say to the people in the room "you're still here after that long intro"
not funny.
and certainly tone deaf when people are wondering how much longer they'll be allowed to work before told to move to atlanta or dallas after putting years into this company.

“ Actually, Randal Stephenson is responsible for the huge debt this company is carrying and JS is just doing the dirty cleanup work after the carnage”

Say what? Wasn’t Stankey second in command back then? And no b*lls to push back? Yes-man holding on to his job?

Actually, Randal Stephenson is responsible for the huge debt this company is carrying and JS is just doing the dirty cleanup work after the carnage that RS left in his departing wake! I'm not a JS fan, but just stating the facts!

It was good to see John’s sense of humor.

He was talking to the folks in the room he was in.

Stankey needs to cut the fat. Turn this into a profitable company. Too many people doing little or no work.

Stankey is a loser!!!

The CEO doesn’t own up to his BAD decisions so what is your point?

Exactly, and T sends out a “culture survey”.

Comment about lower cash in first quarter because of enormous bonuses he is paying people is also tasteless.

"Nothing funny about it guy, he is responsible for all the layoffs."

Do you take any responsibility for decisions you have made in life?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_triad

The dark triad is a psychological theory of personality, first published by Delroy L. Paulhus and Kevin M. Williams in 2002,[1] that describes three notably offensive, but non-pathological personality types: Machiavellianism, sub-clinical narcissism, and sub-clinical psychopathy.[2][3][4][5] Each of these personality types is called dark because each is considered to contain malevolent qualities.[2][6][7][8]

Illustration of the triad
All three dark triad traits are conceptually distinct although empirical evidence shows them to be overlapping. They are associated with a callous–manipulative interpersonal style.[9]

Narcissism is characterized by grandiosity, pride, egotism, and a lack of empathy.[10]
Machiavellianism is characterized by the manipulation and exploitation of others, indifference to morality, lack of empathy, and a strategic focus on self-interest.[11]
Psychopathy is characterized by continuous antisocial behavior, impulsivity, selfishness, callous and unemotional traits (CU),[12] and remorselessness.[13]
High scores in these traits have been found to statistically increase a person's likelihood to commit crimes, cause social distress, and create severe problems for organizations, /b especially if they are in leadership positions.[14] /b
