  1. I regret that I have only one “like” and one “share” to give for this tweet.

    Perhaps these newly unemployed will learn to weld, pull wire, or perhaps, dare I say it, plumb and gasfit (with me!)

    1. Don’t expect them to apply for any jobs that can’t be performed from home. And for God’s sake, don’t let them operate heavy equipment.

      ….they wouldn’t know a 45 deg El from a doughnut. I IOW they don’t know shit from shinola and to be honest..? will Likely tell YOU after 3 weeks as an apprentice, that they know everything…

      I had a neighbour once tell me regarding her husband…”He’s not very handy”.
      She was a looker too… WTF do women see in these useless man bunned slugs..??

      BARISTA’s is all most are good fer IMO…and the bitches..?? HR, where their brethern seem to thrive.

  2. “They took ur jerbs!” – Laid off Twitter and Meta employees

    No more red wine on tap…

  4. Social (media) permission

    Nobody wants to take the first do-nut from the box on the conference room table but there’s an instant line up to be second.

  5. These particular parasitic people are more likely to gravitate to the IRS and government jobs where they can gather like monkeys , picking nits off each other and generally contributing little or nothing to their brethren.

  7. Oh Yes.. Companies pulling away from twitter in a THANK GOD it over moment.. This idea that you can piss on 25% of your customers because they dont align on your politics is insane in the long run.. Pull out, shut it down and keep it that way..

  9. They’ll be blaming Elon for the recession. He started the tech layoffs and the rest of the companies followed suit.
    I wonder how well used, repo’d Teslas will sell?

  10. Just another American cowboy loose in a social media company.

    Yippee Kii Yay

  12. The problem with Meta is Zuck is a woke control freak, that culture comes top down. The board should “de-Zuck Meta, that would make the rest simpler.

  13. The curious thing is how very few of these thousands of big tech employees actually know how to code, or have any discernible skills at all.

    Universities produce an endless supply of young people who have no technical knowledge, no connection with their own history or culture, and no particular specialization. The only artifact of their education is an ingrained piety and a dogmatic set of attitudes and opinions that can be relied on to be completely uniform and held with a religious fervor. These people aren’t particularly useful for keeping systems running or developing software, but they serve as perfectly reliable drones for surveilling user posts and memory-holing things that shouldn’t be seen.

    Big tech employed a literal army of Winstons, who spent their entire day policing social media. These are the young women who produced an endless stream of TikTok videos showing themselves enjoying the free food and amenities at their big tech workplaces in “a day at work videos” that failed to show any actual work being done.

    A lot of them will end up unemployed.

    These people can’t code. They don’t know anything about computers or technology. They aren’t engineers. They’re in a better position than unemployed coal miners only in the fact that they tend to be younger and healthier.

    I predict a lot of carnage in big tech workplaces over the next two years.

    1. What’s actually going on in tech right now is a bit different than what the news implies.

      The enforced work from home edicts taught software developers and software companies that good developers will work more cheaply and effectively remotely. That means that they now have an entire world of opportunities out there; there’s nowhere near enough developers for the jobs when the developers don’t have to live within an hour commute from the office.

      Salaries for good software developers have almost doubled. To keep the ones they’ve got, and to hire new ones as their senior devs leave for better-paying or more interesting jobs, tech companies are shedding dead weight in their salary budget. As Chris Ivey says, it ain’t the real developers who are getting laid off.

    2. I learned to code in 1962 after I graduated Uni. Mind you I joined a company who wanted talented people with aptitude. My first real job,barman and waiter not included.

  14. The imaginary worlds have been melting down for a while now.

    When the real world, long demeaned and criticized by the inhabitants of the imaginary realms, starts to break down (energy shortages, supply chain breakdowns, failures of critical infrastructure), it quickly becomes apparent that the self-indulgent, self-righteous inhabitants of the imaginary world add no value; in fact, they destroy lives, communities, and critical societal traditions.

    1. The unemployment numbers spouted by the Biden administration aren’t making any sense; and supposed low unemployment is the only thing they’ve been able to claim as evidence that we are not in a recession. No surprise that they are fiddling with the reports.

  16. Karma remembers when these dolts told farmers and other useful people to learn how to code.

    Karma, she has a long memory.

  17. With all the layoff at Twitter the poetic Justice is that they will have to pay $8.00 a month to Elonif they want to use it.

    LOL
