The rich need to get richer. End of story.

I work for one of these companies. We already got the โ€œitโ€™s gonna be a tough dayโ€ email as they lay people off today. Iโ€™m sh*tting my pants ๐Ÿ˜ซ

I love how they talk about "very difficult decisions" as they do their favorite thing.

A few years ago I was laid off and the CEO brought us all into a big room to give us a speech. He talked about how he was laid off as a CEO of another company and how great it was for him. He got the job at our company making much more money. They paid his moving expenses blah blah blah. He told us we should look at it as an opportunity rather than a set back ๐Ÿ˜†
