    • Sprint's 'Against the Odds' Turnaround Looks Less and Less Likely [view article]

The folks at the OP campus have made 20-year careers out of just showing up and punching a clock -- it's time for them to put up or get out. And as for my former coworkers in Reston, same goes. I'm ashamed at how many of them have adopted the "work 8 and skate" attitude of their OP counterparts.

      Three years ago, that attitude would have been grounds for dismissal; now it's an accepted part of the culture. And while the remaining employees are calculating how many weeks severance they are entitled to when the next round of layoffs occur, Verizon, AT&T and the others are systemically gutting SN's customer base.

      So my advice to Dan Hesse is: Be bold and take no prisoners. You have nothing to lose at this point.       Apr 30 07:08 PM
