I want you all to consider that Twitter has laid off 50% of it's employees.
Now quickly think to yourself if you've ever been at a job where you had mass layoffs, and as yourself "did it impact the service our company provided?"
I've been around places where 10% layoffs caused a huge drop in service.
Yet, Twitter is functioning as if nothing has changed, and 50% of it's staff is gone.
Just how utterly worthless were these people?
These aren't workers, peasants, or even slaves. They're pets. The company paid to just have them lollygag around doing nothing all day. At least slaves did something productive.
I always saw pre-Musk Twitter as an adult daycare. But now that you point this out, it turns out it was more of a goddamn human petting zoo.
So many jobs are just there to funnel money towards women and diversity hires. There are many videos you can watch of these people doing their "jobs" which at most consists of sending a few emails.
I briefly dated a girl who worked for government and 90% of her job was copying numbers from one spreadsheet to another.
She knew it could be automated and she knew her job should not exist, but she had been happily taking her near 6 figure paycheck for nearly 4 years when I met her.
a smart employee would automate the job and turn the position into "They guy who maintains the automation".
