Just like Atlas Shrugs.

whenever someone says “it’s not about me”, it sure as heck is about them...

Question: Could AT&T simply cut CT from it’s area of providing services (refunding customers as needed)? (Kinda like how some restaurants have that sign saying: “We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.”)

How can you ban someone from laying people off? Unreal.

Blumenthal just wants to be governor.

You could shut Hartford down tomorrow and no one would even notice. Instead of paying them billions to do nothing, all we’d need to do is put our local snow plows and police on the highways. Outsource our prisons to some Southern state and outsource medicare payments. Uconn is self sustaining.

Everything else is a complete waste and btw...AT&T already did their layoffs. I know a few people already let go.

[mamelukesabre]

OK.

So the whole company goes broke and out of business when it can’t lay off anyone. Then what? They all lose their jobs? Or does the state bail the company out then?

OR! Maybe they just chop everyone’s wages in half instead of laying off a few. did they make that illegal too?

I am *so* tired of life imitating art.

This is a Jap thing...you hire its...forever....company and all of you are now gone....or maybe not.

Yet another reason to not start my next tech company there.

Dear AT&T,

We are in need of jobs, here on the beautiful Mississippi Gulf Coast. You will find many highly educated and motivated professionals who would welcome you to our business friendly state.

There are numerous high tech industries located along the 76 mile Interstate 10 corridor. New Orleans is only one hour the to the west and Mobile, Alabama less than an hour to the east.

We also do not suffer from the freezing effects of AGW, in fact, most folks here understand it is a scam.

So tell the pin heads in Connect-a-cut to stuff it. Southern hospitality is alive well.

Thanks y’all,

P.S. It’s crawfish season now. Come for some mud bugs and beer, you’ll never look back.

One reason why companies are shedding jobs like a winter coat in spring. They’re afraid this is the last chance to do so. Stories like this one only prove them right. Watch it accelerate.

Why oh why did I move back to CT?
