Cingular today announced that it has reached an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice that will allow the company's proposed acquisition of AT&T Wireless to proceed on schedule. While the annoucement covers any antitrust concerns, the deal must also win approval from the FCC. The FCC has reportedly agreed on approval internally, and is expected to make an announcement by tomorrow. Cingular officials continue to expect the transaction to close later this quarter.

sorry a wee bit harsh, but I am surrounded by customers going "I can't wait till it goes through blah blah blah", reps going "WIll I have a job?" and people on here CONSTANTLY posting the same crap about it in different threads speculating and asking the samne damned question a hundred ways, lets just smile and be happy 😁

Well, at least you're getting Cingular training. We're in one of the largest call centers in the US.
We haven't gotten a word about anything....except the CUIDs.

I am in Halifax and heard nothing of it yesterday night 5-10 shift, maybe tomorrow when I go in. 😕 Either way, not really caring a whole lot heh

5-10 student schedule, you'd be last on the list to hear, they deal with the full time people first,then part timers, then students

Yeah I have Cingular merger training this Saturday, go me 😕

While all the bigger call centers are in training this week, our little center is getting 3x the call volume. For the next two weeks we're expected to keep the call volume, but they're taking out half the floor for training (Nov 😎 and the rest of us the week after. There's mandatory overtime and all that. I'm going to be working straight for two weeks. It's going to be soooo crazy for the next few months I think.
