Chistmastree15,

I do appreciate your constructive feedback. I'm not attacking you personally. I just hate to see anyone ask about potential inside information for their personal gains. I can't blame you for wanting some inside information as that's human nature, but at the same time, people should realize to ask a corporate employee to reveal information they know about a particular product and service that hasn't been released to the general public is much like asking a stockbroker for inside trading information on a particular stock.
Just as an FYI, any Sprint corporate employee I find releasing internal/confidential/proprietary information will be reported to our security department for investigation because I firmly believ...

Need some help pulling the stick out?

Lighten the f**k up.

Tool.

We use aliases. How can you report us?

Tell me one instance where posting launch info or details of upcoming devices hurts Sprint's bottom line? I can understand your disdain for people who post inside info like how to cancel a contract without an ETF or how to get a discount they are not entitled to etc. I never have nor will I ever post info like that. I don't see how device details, etc. does anything but create excitement for a company. Like Apple for example, they announce the iPhone six months before it's release and it's front page news and people are talking about it on the street. Do you think that that announcement hurt Apple? Also, I don't see you jumping up and down when your beloved moderators, Rich and Eric, post leaks about upcoming devices. Any reason you g...

That's what I thought. Chump.

PWNED! 🤣

I already know you're a whiney, nerdy hall monitor. 🤣 You do a lot of talking and got nothing to back it up.

Who else also gives up to $150 off the price of a handset after 22 months instead of 24 months like the rest of the other wireless carriers?

Cingular offers upgrades after 22 months as well. 🙄

Um, Verizon? New Every Two is 22 months. You can also upgrade after one year on any $49.99 and up calling plan.

If you work for Sprint, you really need to keep up with your competition.

Sprint's rate plan requirement for the Handset Upgrade Program for either the 1 or 2 year contract extension is one of at least $34.99 as the base plan. As far as knowing my competition, I shop them weekly and rotate through different stores so I won't get made.

Sure, buddy if you did you would know

" I firmly believe rogue employees damage the bottom financial line of Sprint." who the heck cares about the bottom line i dont get paid based on the bottom line i get paid based on what i sell if i gotta follow some grey lines to do that whatever.

To be run over by the highest individual in our company would be an honor and a privilege.

WOW Are you sleeing with sprints CEO because from these post I would say I hope so and you are getting something out of it.

I like to think of myself as a Black and Decker.

No, a box of screwdrivers that don't screw is a better analogy.

...because black and decker makes f*cking garbage.

JM, whats up?!?!?!?!

Sup, SL_VA? You started school yet? Did you just stop by to see raycarroll being his usual toolish self?

oh I've ignored him for a long time now. But what happened with you and Sprint? Why the split?

My last day at Sprint is Friday.

I PMed you.

nothing has come through my e-mail as of yet. Can you recieve PM's?

yep.

did you get my PMs???

yeah. i replyed.

That's hilarious that the last digits of his phone number end in 666

🤣

My customers don't have a difficult time remembering my wireless #. Read Revelation 13:18 sometime and you'll see why I'm sometimes called a beast. 😎

I never see a peep from you on phonenews when people post inside info. And what about Rich and Eric, what do you do when they post leaked phones, etc? That's right, you do what you usually do, lick their a$$.

The information released by Rich and Eric from what I've seen has been information from electronic trade shows as well as FCC submissions both of which is public access. I'm sure some of their information is also obtained via various wireless carrier PRs. As far as Phone News is concerned, I'm not as active there as I am here. There have been a few forum members there I have been able to discover who there were with Sprint and forward my findings to a liason in our security department. Needless to say, these people all of a sudden weren't with Sprint anymore.

You're a jerk.

You don't own Sprint, and you are just a number to Sprint. When will you come to this realization? They don't care about you, your family, or your life.

For you to take it upon yourself to get people fired from their jobs is really sad. Not a very Christian thing to do rayray.

You know what DigAHole? I sleep sound at night because I know I'm doing right by Sprint. It's not my fault there are apparently a few rogue employees who wish to violate the M&Ps as well as the Sprint Extreme Policy by posting release dates of some wireless devices. The discipline up to an including termination is not in my hands, but in those of the Sprint security team.

You know nothing of how you're supposed to act according to a religion you subscribe to. You should really read up on it, ya know, the bible to see what your God thinks of your actions. With your divorce and these tattle tailings that have resulted in employees losing their job, I hope you know you're buying a one way ticket to your hell.

On top of all this, you can be as loyal to Sprint as you want. But since you are still entry level, and expendable, understand that your loyalities are meaningless.

Hi Ray,

I have a honest question for you (seriously). If you found out that Gary Forsee (Im assuming he is someone big at Sprint) was revealing inside info. Would you report him too?

Think carefully about your answer, if you say yes you run the risk of being fired for being a snitching trouble maker, if you say no you're a hypocrit. (Please dont say Gary would never do this, you dont know that and ask the employees of Enron if they thought their chiefs would ever wrong them).

My point is... that there are all levels of information. Some very important that should be reported and others while not proper are not so important. What it sounds like you do not understand is that not everything is a battle and you need to choose yours c...

Well put. PM me if you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them for you.

Actually christmastree15, I'm glad this forum thread has grown as it has because my point has been the entire time that employees should abide by the ethics set forth by their corporate policies.

You opened Pandora's Box with this forum thread...

I think it would be a good idea for each Sprint employee to revisit Sprint's Leading with Integrity: Sprint Nextel Code of Conduct

Back in biblical days, they would have stoned your sorry A$$. I'm sure everyone on this board will have a good laugh when they hear you got canned because of your wolf crying to security all the time. Bosses don't like people under them that they have to worry about, and you are one of those. It's only a matter of time befre you find yourself unemployed because of your going over their head to security all the time.

I do follow a chain of command herbf. If I call wolf, it's for a valid reason i.e. there is a wolf. I've been in this industry since '97 and know full well what's expected of me.

hey how old are you ramon

working for sprint for 8 years, i know that people like you will eventually get whats coming. snitching on people for stupid **** will get you fired and you know what i think your time is coming. Sprint wont care who you know or how high up in the chain they are. Once you step on enought toes which im sure u have you will get coming what you deserve. People hate snitches

I feel for all your employees if you ever become a manager. Hoopefully sprint keeps track of all the things you tell them. I have learned one thing and that loyality. No one here has ever posted something that could hurt sprint in ANY way. Posting upcoming phone dates can only help a company. I remeber when I went to see superman returns in the movies. It had spiderman 3 previews. It was one year away from release. You think that hurt??? You need to sit down and really think about what you do if you report this stuff. It will come back and byte you in the A**. Just rember everyone you work for looks for loyality. If you have proven you will stab them in the back you will get nowere. Now if someone post something that hurts sprint or get...
(continues)

I just cut and paste what I find here as well as at other wireless forum sites and forward the information over to people on the security team. It's up to them whether or not an internal investigation is warranted. To release actual dates of wireless phones that our corporate communications department has not formally issued a PR on is against the Sprint Extreme Integrity Policy. I'm quite loyal to Sprint.

You missed my point and I expected you to. Be loyal however. Pick and choose! Loyalty is nothing to them. They can turn around and get rid of you tommorrow without even thinking about it and your loylity to them mean notta. Be layal to the ones that matter!! As a manager I will back and support all my people even if they are wrong. Unless it will wind me up in jail. That is loyality. Things are not black and white. There is alot of gray!! Remember that and you will one day become more than a sales consultant. What I told you will help you not snitching on things that they could care less about.

To me, a manager who goes to bat for their employee even when the manager knows the employee is wrong should be terminated as that shows a lack of integrity of the manager and not someone any employee should look up to for leadership. I do realize loyalty in Corporate America is ebbing away like a low tide when it comes to employees and their companies. I look to Him for guidance for He is ultimately the one who matters. As far as remaining a Retail Communications Consultant goes wombough, I plan on finishing up my BS in CMIS within the next year or two and try to get into our security department. To go after internal threats as well as external ones to Sprint is my dream position.

who do you think you are to come in here on these forums and berate these people who are just looking for information?? what makes you so hig and mighty? i understand the need for keeping things quiet about release dates and such but you could tell them nicely. youre supposed to be an icon of your company, with the way you act towards these people its amazing they'll even do business with you.

you are exactly what most people cant stand, a symbol of big business treating us little people like we mean nothing, like all you want from us is money and we don't deserve your respect. have some sense about you and treat people how you would want to be treated and stop talking down to them lest you have it done to you as well 👿

I'll try to be less Gregory Houseish when it comes to the newbies here who don't know better than to ask Sprint corporate employees to divulge information that hasn't been issued as a PR from our corporate communications/marketing department. I don't see myself as high and mighty. I'm a veteran wireless sales professional like many here at Phone Scoop. I wear a Teflon suit to work each day so pretty much everything rolls off.

you treat these people with absolutly no respect, thats what im trying to get acoss to you. all you have to say is you dont have the information you jerk. when you sit there on your throne yelling at them for their "audacity" whe they ask you a simple question really makes people think twice about your business, like i said you are a sybol of your company so act like it.

i work for cingular and as much as i hate the company and their business tactics i still treat my customers like they're people, not dollar signs.

im not your boss and im not about to tell you how to do your job, but if i was a customer on this froum reading these things you tell everyone than i sure as hell wouldn't want to do business with a company who employs peo...
(continues)

I have respect for my customers as they are the ones who ultimately pay my salary. I just don't believe in rose color glasses type of answers and and shoot from the hip. You would think it's common sense not to ask questions that are obviously unethical in nature. Look at Martha Stewart on how she manipulated insider information for personal gain and the consensquences of her actions. BTW Q Q Q, if you hate the new at&t, quit so someone else who actually would appreciate their employer can have the opportunity to have your position.

as much as i hate my job, i love to help people, im actually exploring my options for working elsewhere with different companies. but in regards to the "unethical behavior," most customers don't know what we in the wirelss industry know about keeping things like phone releases secret. thus they dont think it's unethical in anyway, its human nature to be curious about things they don't know. all you have to do is find nicer ways to tell them about our policies and procedures instead of going off on them.

now i'm pretty sure you're a good worker in our industry judging by how long you've been working in it, but along with that experience you think you would have learned a little thing called tact. and with you referencing "Him or He" (w...
(continues)

Ray, used made the statement about people asking "Sprint Corporate Employees" for insider information.

Why don't you do all of us who have no clue who here in PS works for Sprint and start a thread which lists every alias which is owned by a Sprint Corporate Employee.

This way we can all steer clear of asking you/them for any top secret info. You're an absolute jerk w/ the way you converse w/ people on this forum.

BTW, the people in security probably have a file on you, and they'll never extend an offer to you for a job once you have your degree in corporate snitching. 😲

WOW your just a RCC, how long have you been with the company....Moving up the chain pretty quick. you must not be doing something right. maybe its time to change your routine

I've been with Sprint Nextel since December of 2005.

i too have been with sprint since dec 2005, got lead in august 06' 😁
