        How long until AT&T takes down this article from 5 days ago where they announced the $1,000 bonuses as part of a union settlement & not because of the tax bill as they're claiming now… https://www.att.com/gen/general?pid=22150 …

        Isn’t that special. A bonus spread out over a year of paychecks amounts to nothing, is still taxed, and is gone at the end of the year. An empty gesture, a consolation prize to make execs feel good for doing something with litt effect on the bottom line.

        Ask state employees about raises and bonuses. We got a bonus 1 year instead of a raise. Didn’t see much change in my paycheck & it did nothing to raise base pay, which VRS uses to calculate retirement benefits. Yeah it’s good PR with no long-term effect.

        Bonuses are a great way to avoid pay raises since it is a 1 time thing not guaranteed to come back. #RaiseTheWage

        Which is still cheaper for them than giving pay raises and hiring new employees and paying benefits.

        So they’re gonna give $1000 to their 200,000 employees so that’s 200,000 dollars meanwhile they’re giving the execs millions in bonuses and on top of that millions in salary. Let that sink in.

        Actually it is 200 million but still a one time drop in the bucket. This will mean billions to them

        And who's going to be responsible for checking to make sure the corps. actually do what they say they are going to do. It's great to make these kind of declarations but nobody holds these companies to their promises. #CorporationsLie #CorporateGreed

        Wait, this is REAL news from the main stream media? Oh, it's only fake news when you don't like it. BTW, this report is misleading, but bots don't have the ability to detect that.
