I fail to see how a merger such as this will create jobs. Wouldn't a merger give the companies an opportunity to reduce redundancy? For example, there are many T-Moblie retail locations within a mile or so of an AT&T location. There is an opportunity for consolidation there. Additionally, they could consolidate customer service and billing operations and reduce redundant positions there as well. Where would they be adding jobs to make up for those losses?
