guys maybe they were impacted in a good way tho?
- tropicaljacket 4y agoMaybe your question is a joke but I assume "impacted" means laid off in this context. Kind of like when people say someone "passed away" to mean they died
- karamanolev 4y agoCan we please just use "fired", "let go" or even "we separated with"? Impacted is just soft wording taken to a comedic level.
- lotsofpulp 4y ago“As of today, we are no longer buying labor from 17 people we previously bought labor from”.
- smugma 4y agoFired implies with cause. In the US, it would be "laid off" and in the UK it's often "made redundant", which is itself more ambiguous than need be.
- ZephyrBlu 4y agoWhoosh.
- xqcgrek2 4y agono, they meant the way when a car impacts a wall, or when stool gets impacted in a colon
