      <![CDATA[Wow, if Joe Mallahan can break the grip of public employee unions on government employment, he's got my vote. I would love to see all those city employees earning the minimum wages and no benefits that are commesurate with their abilities. Or better yet, outsource a bunch of administrative, technology, and customer service jobs to India.<br />
<br />
I don't know about the gay thing (what does T-mobile not do that other industry players do?), but if we can break the public employee unions, I'm willing to overlook it.

      <![CDATA[Mallahan's  portrays himself to the public as if he was T-Mobile's CEO.  But Mallahan turns out be not much more than a middle manager in a large company.  Really not in charge of anything substantive to the company. That's why he is  "surprised" when he finds out about T-Mobile's anti gay and anti union activities. Sounds like he is doing a little resume padding to me.

      <![CDATA[T-Mobile's CEO Robert Dotson is Mormon.  That may have something to do with their less aggressive policies on gay issues.  I don't think they allowed alcohol to be consumed at the annual company picnic until just the last year or two.

      <![CDATA[In reading the report calling T-Mo homophobic isn't fair. It offers full benefits and some of the items it lost out on "Has employer-supported employee resource group OR firm-wide diversity council" is something it doesn't have at all for any type of people.<br />
<br />
And what is the deal with a resource group being worth three times as many points as providing dental/vision/COBRA coverage? I would much rather have health coverage for my domestic partner versus meet with some stupid group of people who whine a lot.

But what does the mayor do regarding gay issues?<br />

Crap on T-Mobile all you want, but please expand on how this should actually affect a voter's decision.

      <![CDATA[So typical for management to put out misleading half-truths and outright lies to discourage unionization, and then turn around and claim they leave the choice up to their employees. If this was the crap they put in writing, imagine what was actually said to T-Mobile employees who dared mention unionizing.<br>
<br>
Expect more doubletalk and obfuscating from this suit if he becomes your mayor.

      <![CDATA[T-Mobile sucks in general.  Their service is spotty and their phone selection blows.  I don't feel so bad feeding the whores at At&t now that I know that T-mobile is also a homophobic crap hole.
