Your absolutely right. These U-verse jobs are term positions. (temp work) The funny thing is U-verse is the future. They are hiring all these term employees to work on building the future network so where does that leave the future of the company? Most of the perm employees will still be doing the copper to the premise. How does that play out in AT&T's commitment to it's employees?
I had landline service with AT&T and its been here for 27years, gave them a chance to keep me as a customer because price was just too high and COX was offering specials with it phone. They declined to reduce the bill so I went with COX. Could always depend on that copper to provide a connection to the outside world during hurricanes but its just getting too expensive when every time you turn around your being nickeled and dimed on every bill every company sends to the house.
reply to ryder9 yea, I hear about it all the time. my wife didn't think mobility got a horrible contract. She says "try working for a hospital, then you will really appreciate your paycheck! "bloodsuckers" (phebotomy) don't pay jack for money or benefits! Yet they are the ones that have to "draw your blood!"
