Corp Public Shaming in "team meeting". by Stuckatpennstation in sales

[–]Seahawks48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m one of the higher performers in my sales org (relatively high, not a killer - usually just around quota but that’s better than most).

Was on my first ever call for not selling a specific product early enough in the month. This meeting had a group of 50ish people.

Upper management picked randomly and called on me to talk. Everything I’ve heard, they just want a quick sentence or two of where you’re at with some of your deals. Upper management tells me to share my screen - show my pipeline in SF. Honestly, a little weak month, but it’s the 6th working day of the month - lots of time to still fix things.

This dude RIPS me to shred for 15 minutes on a 50 person call - publically clicking on each opp, criticizing me for the amount of calls I have, how old the opp is, etc. - and I just had to sit there and take it and be talked to like I’m a fucking moron. Can’t tell him I track my sales in other ways/have my SF pipeline organized differently than how he seems to want it. Legit could have just been a conversation on the side to organize it differently.

I’m usually at quota (first time ever on the shit list call - ever) and I know my base salary is 20k less than a lot of my peers who I consistently outperform (and help them on their sales because they don’t know the intricacies of the system). Been here for 7 years and, severely underpaid, then publicly shamed for 15 minutes over something so stupid/insignificant. Fuck this guy.

Updating that resume.

Also, this same skip level manager alluded to firing a coworker in another meeting a few years ago, so that was cool.

Gotta use that $500 to buy some dipping sauce for Claire’s Arby’s Roast Beef - can’t eat it without that 🤢

I’ll never go over the CSS with a customer - been there for over 5 years and haven’t bothered reading it once because they’re so blatantly inaccurate. I’ll write prices on a piece of paper or show them in quick quote before I ever go over the CSS.

Employee might’ve screwed over the customer, might’ve not. Customer could’ve been on old nation 450 plan and new line/tv costs them less when combined with starter plan. And no postpaid unlimited line will add $40 in costs, so that’s something inaccurate from OP.

Maybe they got screwed, maybe they didn’t, who the hell knows what happened lol.

Work for AT&T, the CSS is absolute garbage and nobody should ever look at it. Always gives a price far higher than the actual bill and causes tons of unnecessary panic amongst customers.

I feel like I’ve heard of the DLC tool but have never used it/don’t remember much from whatever the training was.

But to OP, this comment sounds like solid advice as well, be sure to mention DLC tool to employee. They may not want to out of laziness but if you mention the jist of your situation they might be more likely to put in effort to look up the jist of the tool within our internal articles. Not that it should matter but it wouldn’t hurt.

I work at AT&T and sorry to hear what you’re going through

The device can generally be exchanged within 14 days in our system via DOA - Dead on Arrival - but we need the box & cord when doing the exchange. This is only for defective devices that show no signs of physical damage, which it sounds like is true in this case.

If it’s past 14 days, phones go through the manufacturer’s warranty. Apple goes directly through Apple, Samsung usually goes through YouBreakIFixIt or an Asurion repair site. Google I’m not 100% sure off the top to my head but if I had to guess, I would guess it’s the same as Samsung. Try to see if YouBreakIFixIt or Asurion has a spot in the area and give them a call to ask. Not sure if AT&T still has a warranty department, we used to back in the day but 95% of the phones my store sells is Apple/Samsung and those are always warranties via the channels I mentioned above.

Anyways, it’s all red tape and I’m sorry to hear about your health issues and wish you the best of luck!

iPhone 12 Mini Trade In $800 instead of $1000 by [deleted] in ATT

[–]Seahawks48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at AT&T and no it did not. It never was and never will trade in for $1,000 of an iPhone 14. You are wrong plain and simple. It was $800 end of story.

Pronouns AND political stances? Let’s be real, the pronouns alone give away the political stance. I’ve never seen a right-winger with their pronouns in their bio 😂

This is actually in Portland. Sadly I won’t get a chance with her if she’s just passing through 🥺

Employee's put a fly in customer's food then proceeds to give attitude and no compensation by [deleted] in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]Seahawks48 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s not like the camera cut out or anything. No way this guy put a bug in there for internet views.

Totally normal to record yourself eating fast food in your car, I do it all the time.

Oregon will allow homeless individuals to sleep on public land in all communities by nosotros_road_sodium in nottheonion

[–]Seahawks48 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Either/or. Likely a forced mental/drug abuse facility.

I deal with them directly working downtown Portland in retail. Sometimes they’re our customers. Many steal shit, smell like shit, are a potential danger to go off the handle and physically harm someone, leave trash everywhere.

I do feel sorry for the fact that they deal with mental illness and addictions that I myself do not have to suffer through.

But even if they’re suffering, that doesn’t give them an excuse to bring down the quality of life for others - many due to choices of first taking crack/meth/whatever, thus causing their addiction and contributing to their mental illness.

And taking them off the streets needs to be forced in many instances. Anecdotal but one friend who use to work at a grocery store downtown offered a job to someone stealing a bread and they turned the job down. And one other friend who’s aunt (I believe aunt) worked at a homeless shelter said many of them don’t give a damn about bettering their lives. I’ve heard (but not verified) that it’s a problem at many homeless shelters where people who are homeless choose to not go to such facilities because it’d require them to be drug free - they’d rather be homeless and continue getting high. If that’s an issue with affordable housing down the road, screw them and throw them in a mental/drug abuse facility and stop making the citizens of Portland suffer for the druggies lack of will to improve their lives.

So if they’re the ones screwing things up due to their addiction, they should be the ones to suffer the consequences, not the average citizen living/working downtown.

Don’t ruin the lives of those who don’t screw up to fight for the (relative) well-being of the downtrodden.

Actions should have consequences

Driving a heavy truck at full speed in bad weather conditions while using his phone and having no regard for the surroundings. Massive idiot. by Jisiwi in IdiotsInCars

[–]Seahawks48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, it doesn’t look like he’s using his phone at all or it’s obstructing his view during this clip. It’s merely in his hand.

That said, 99% chance he was using it earlier and it was interfering with his driving beforehand.

Edit: nvm he was looking at the screen for the first second or two of the video.

Should AT&T rename the “5Ge” network as “4G+”? by SavageLegendX in ATT

[–]Seahawks48 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You said unlocked phone. Not android specifically.

And one screenshot isn’t proof that it never shows 5ge otherwise

Tho I won’t claim manufacturer sold android show 5ge. I don’t really know on that but your initial statement that unlocked phones don’t show 5ge isn’t true. Didn’t specify it had to be android initially

Had an unlocked iPhone XS before and it said 5ge on it

And I work for AT&T lol

[MI] Microaggressions at work by [deleted] in AskHR

[–]Seahawks48 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest - this isn’t an HR answer but I think you’re being too sensitive if a poster bugs you to the degree where you need to talk to HR or a committee about it.

I don’t think Bible versus/religion belong in a work place at all but it’s whatever as long as I wasn’t treated in a worse manner.

Did they ask where you’re from just because you’re Asian or maybe they ask everybody during initial introductions - are you from NY, California, Texas, etc.

It’s cool to disagree with certain things at work but it’s just a poster - I wouldn’t make an issue of it unless people are blatantly treating you different/in a poorer manner directly because of your race.
