Big tech job cuts, 70k jobs gone

  1. LoL this is probably the best of them all - one that which only exists to click on buttons on Jira, start/stop meetings, tell people they're doing a good job or they're a bit off track...

    Snarky comment aside, this role exists because engineers are/were disorganised in their work. But again a good one will sort of like make this additional role unnecessary if things are handled properly.

    If we don't seek efficiency then we fall in the communist and union dogma, that of paying people to be on the payroll.

    Still doesn't change the fact that Presidents' Day is more deserving of closing the market to celebrate than Juneteenth Day which was the point that I was trying to make. Glad that @VicBee liked your comment though. LOL

    You turned a perfectly fine thread into a political one.

    Oh yeah?!? Did you know Maine and Massachusetts have a holiday called Patriots Day on third Monday of April which is usually right around April 15th, which means we get one extra day to file our taxes (Most years, depends on day of holiday)? AHAHHA! Sam Adams beer for everyone, WHOOOO!

    There's a few other states that have usurped the holiday as their own, like Maryland and...I forget whomelse, but governments here are closed on that day. It's so messed up.

  7. The thread went from having 1 idiot to having 3.
    Now, with me as the 4th, I think we should be square.

    Let's get back on topic, children. Geez you must be fun to work with..

    YOU'RE the one that wants to be free from your flock. Thus your nick, I think. :)

    As long as they don't close the market to not allow me to trade, I have no beef with them.

    Yer golden for Patriots Day, since it is a local, man. Sorry about the Juneteenth thing though, that is messed up. That was just started last year, or year before? Time has gone funky,
