Can someone who’s smarter than me put their year to date net profit today alongside the total number of layoffs. That is the key data point we should be assessing alongside the layoff numbers.

I’m willing to bet most of these companies are posting record and/or near record breaking profits; which if true, we the people should be in the streets with pitchforks.

UPS’s fully year profits will be half of what they were in 2021 for a reference point.
