It’s been known for quite some time now that AT&T’s network is shitty and even in big cities its impossible to receive calls depending on the device you’re using. Although the company claims to be fixing its network, things haven’t been going so well and if we’re to believe the WSJ AT&T execs are thinking of offering incentives to costumers who promise to limit data consumption.

AT&T exec #1: You know, our network’s really getting slammed with all these people using their unlimited data plans to download things and do stuff online all the time. Any ideas how we can fix it?

AT&T exec #2: We could put out more WiFi hotspots. People seem to use those. Sometimes.

AT&T exec #1: Sure, but that’s not going to make a dent in places like New York City. I mean, have you used an iPhone there?

AT&T exec #2: We have these things called MicroCells that people can use at home, if they live in North Carolina. Maybe more people could use those?

AT&T exec #1: Yeah, that’s good. But people like to use their cellphones outside their house too. What happens then?

AT&T exec #2: Well, what if we offered customers incentives to use less data?

AT&T exec #1: Now you’re talking! What sort of incentives could get them to do that?

AT&T exec #2: Hmm….
