... worst one we've ever taken. My question is: why did IBM bother to give this survey? IBM couldn't be more clear, that they don't give a damn about morale....
I have and I am in my own area but it is very difficult because of several reasons. 1. Older SSR's that have their 30 years but are still working don't want to...
The results have not come out yet, but in talking to people in my office who took the time to take the survey, I am told they clobbered it as well. On another...

... Actually, Lee, I'd be willing to bet that blue_jet or blue_duck has joined the Alliance. It would hardly be performing at a 1 level for a union buster not...
Might I suggest that IBM moles generated the inflammatory note with the objective of generating a massive negative reaction from this group and others. After...
Well as the person who posted the ORIGINAL note, I'm hardly an IBM mole, I think Lee can attest to that :) However, I *DO* have very strong feelings about...
