    What does that have to do with what was being discussed?

    I get your sarcasm but the tech jobs that were lost aren’t going to be mopping floors. They will find something if they haven’t already and plenty probably got a severance package plus unemployment, etc.

    If it wasn’t clear. I was pointing out what this is really about and it’s not about Biden versus whatever monstrosity the maggats parade around. These job losses in particular are thanks to the economic engine that everyone seems to think is the only way to have a good economy. They weren’t lost because Biden did anything and they would have been created under whoever was the sitting president when interest rates hit those lows.

        What the fuck are you talking about? The middle managers aren’t suffering, most probably kept their jobs or got moved around elsewhere.

        I feel nothing for people losing jobs that aren’t actually needed in a company.

        I really hope you are being sarcastic, if not it means you are one of those wastes of skin and office space that only hamper production by those they are managing. The state of management in most companies is one of the reasons I’m self employed. I don’t have to have some fuckwad that failed upwards telling me to do things the most inefficient way or worse making my job hell because they have to hover and micromanage.

        You aren’t getting the point so peace out.

          Because the health of the company’s finances should elicit more empathy than humans losing their means of survival?
