2025 is deemed the year of layoffs. That’s what a hiring manager told me jokingly the other day. Time to squeeze the oranges hard as you possibly can until it’s about the burst! I think everyone is terrified. I certainly am. It’s infuriating. You work hard, do everything you’re supposed to do, and you lose no matter what happens

As long as individuals are allowed to hoard hundreds of billions (soon, trillions) of dollars that they couldn’t possibly use in 1000 years, then this will never end.
We need to cap personal wealth, and it needs to be a number so low that any one person can’t take over a country like Nazi Musk is doing at this very moment.
There is absolutely no reason why we have homeless people, people who can’t afford medication, kids who are hungry, and students who have to choose between education and a roof over their head.
These problems exist because there are literal trillionsof dollars being hoarded by a few people, when it should have been distributed to everyone who actually earned it.

The reason is to make plebs aware what happens when you don’t comply with their regime…
I am tired of the world pretending only the people who invest money are “invested” in a workplace.
Your example here is what I am speaking of.
We invest our lives in a workplace, with the hope that our labor will make the workplace succeed in the marketplace. It is an investment: of our time, of our effort, and thought.
When the business fails or decides we aren’t worth it, they are ignoring the investment we made in learning how the business works and doing our best work.
We are turned to the streets, nevermind the effort and investment we went through. No, because we didn’t bring money to the table none of that counts somehow even though we did all the real labor that make the business function. Labor the “invested” couldn’t do on their own, no matter how much money they had.
The only company I’ve ever truly been invested in is the one I’m running myself. I’ve never seen working for someone else as anything more than trading my time for monetary compensation. The only reason I ever cared about a company’s success was to ensure I still had a place to earn a living from.
If it were a small business where I felt valued, then maybe it would be different - but not when we’re talking about a company that employs hundreds and the CEO doesn’t even know me by name.
I agree with you. I also take the investing approach to hopefully learn any new skills I can during employment that might be viable for my future career somewhere else.
you only lose if you invest more than you get paid back with your paycheck. if you get laid off, it’s supposed to be their loss, because they lose your experience. you should be good. i know change can be stressful, but you can get another job until finally a company isn’t mismanaged and keeps you.
2025 is deemed the year of layoffs
Wasn’t 2023 the year of layoffs? Didnt like half a million people get laid off since 2020 per layoffs.fyi?
They have been rattling our cages for years but unemployment rate is steady.
I think that’s the big reason why Trump is fucking with fed slaves, they are going after the safest jobs
Either way, US in demographic transition, they can’t really do 2008 again due to this.
The only thing they can do is import migrant slaves on both high and low end. And they are doing it and Trump won’t change that despite what his brain dead base thinks…
They did some show with “Illagal’s” but bro who is gonna fucking working in the slaughter houses…
Owners won’t have it beyond a show
