That’s an easy answer if your boss asks you this. “Well Bob, since you don’t know what I do here how about you lay me off and figure that out?”
I have one of those worthless corporate SOB’s of a boss for the last few months that I would love to say that too. I believe there was a few of these workers at twitter who said the same thing to Elon as well. And a bunch of works at twitter that weren’t doing their jobs that Elon is glad to see gone.

I'm not sure how this is all gonna shake out but everyone is replaceable. Twitter had a hard time with the mass layoffs for about 6 months. No doubt Elon lost some good employees that got cut with the cuts. I have no doubt this will also happen in this situation.

It seems like a more effective way would have been to identify functions that are not necessary rather than ATB or leaving it up to the individual employees to determine who goes. Like any other time, when the organization get shaky, the best performers are the first to pull the cord as they have the most options.

Well now that it’s officially closed, had one employee opt in for resignation and know about 7 others that took it. I expect a few of those to not be processed as they were considered “public safety” positions.
Now we lost about all of those summer time recreational positions with over 3400 people being let go. A lot of those let go used to be temporary seasonal positions but were converted to temporary to perm postions when the forest circus did away with seasonal jobs…. Lots of those people being paid less than a fast food employee were canned. Let that sit with you.
Interesting times and here for the roller coaster.

I’m good with what Trump is doing, we need some big changes in our spending, some good people will be affected, hopefully the cream rises to the top. But doge has to start somewhere, hopefully when they have time, they can fine tune things, but for now the tourniquet needs to be applied.
Mtnwalker:
It always hurts to rip the bandaid off but I think we'll be better for it in the long run, we were on an unsustainable trajectory. Hard to effectively cull a bloated behemoth like the federal government without having some unfavorable terminations along the way, you're talking millions of employees to sift through. Easy for me to say when it doesn't directly affect my employment though
