Sprint Stays Losing

I'm not a Sprint Customer but something tells me that a recent biz headline translates to even more layoffs in the Golden Ghetto:

Three of the nation's largest cable companies are quietly pulling the plug on a joint cell-phone venture with Sprint Nextel Corp., called Pivot.

Spokespeople for Comcast Corp., Time Warner Cable Inc. and Cox Communications Inc. said Wednesday they have stopped marketing the Pivot service and plan in the coming weeks to give their Pivot customers the option of switching to traditional Sprint mobile phone plans.

And because I'm all about optimism I must reiterate that this spells good news for guys who would like to see women formerly in middle management working the stripper pole . . . I guess.
