a federal judge ruled ATT can proceed with its planned merger with Time Warner
the trump administration tried to block it on anti trust grounds
It was pretty clear that the real reason trump tried to block it was his hatred of CNN. AT&T and TW are not in the same industry so there is really no anti trust issue. (this is time warner the media company not the cable company.)
I’m not particularly happy that At&T, being a scumbag company, gets bigger.
But on the other hand, the only reason the Trump admin opposed this is because of Little Donnie’s ongoing feud with CNN. So I really can’t be mad that a judge spat in his eye either.
Well I work in the central office in nyc as an operations special, making sure our network is in tip top shape. Honestly I would rate att as a 6-7 outta 10.
Got our good points, got our bad points. Scumbag company…nah. I am a union employee and have always been treated fairly by the company.
Do you have any sway over outsourcing customer service and tech support to countries that barely speak English well enough to engage in basic communication with their American customers?
I did two years as union employee for AT&T. Not bad. I remember we threatened to go on strike because AT&T wanted us to pay for a portion of our healthcare. Luckily, we didn’t strike.
It doesn’t even bother me that English isn’t their first language. It’s the ones I’ve spoken with that really to struggle to even engage in basic communication via English.
Nah. I love my U-Verse. Just mildly annoying when I need some tech support. Kind of like the mild annoyance of no edit here. But I still love the forum.
