I graduated in 2001 in a tech-adjacent field, and my first job was as a security guard making barely over minimum wage. Things get bad. Things get better.
Are...are we the mirror universe? I don't know why this should be so shocking to me given, well, everything, but I'm going to need a moment to digest this.
It's an epidemic of "how do we cut staff by 15-20% without paying millions in severance" with no regard to what it means for the company beyond the next four fiscal quarters.
"Hey. Don’t I pay your salary? ... You’re a public servant; get me a glass of water."
RIP George.
