You're mixing things that don't belong together. Bringing in the humanitarian crisis to say "though luck, other people are having it way worse" is disingenuous.

Here is the problem as I see it: these corpos no longer want to accept responsibility for their decisions and they will literally sell their grandmas if that means a great next quarter. Long term thinking and planning? Fuck that.
The irony is that pulling this bullcrap (while raking in profits) does not work long term. The productivity and morale of people working there goes down even more each time they play this kind of stunts. Same corpos will now complain that people are quiet quitting.
- erulabs 3y agoI only meant to say playing the moral card is pretty weak here. If the moral thing to do is pay people forever to do something you don't need them to do, well, I reject that. If this decision is a bad decision, it will hurt the company. That's not my prerogative, it's the companies. How are you so sure this is not "long term planning"? How are you so sure of everything you've said?
- x86x87 3y agoIf you hire people to only fire them a few months later that's poor long term planning. Starting projects without resourcea is poor planning. If you don't understand basic things about how knowledge workers actually behave and think and you are literally killing their morale that's poor long term planning.
