Capitalist on even, commie on odd

Empathies with laid off people. Sometimes we are overworked and underpaid, then we are capitalist. We want the pay to match the work. There should be a 4 day work week posts keep rolling. Offsite should be huge innit.

But, almost all of us know when we are overpaid and underworked. We know when we don't do anything productive and when we get fired, we want labour laws and UBI.

Most of us sit in AC office, drinking office tea want UBI, I find it abhorrent and embarassing.

I was laid off a few years ago, and I cried and i cried. Then I did a bootstrap startup and my eyes opened up to what's real.

Nobody owes anything to anybody in money. Never did, never will.

Swiggy has an employee cost of 2000+ cr. Whereas the main parts of their ecosystem the drivers are paid 3500+ cr.

Maybe they should have never hired so many people in the first place.

Don't think they were underworked. Sorry to burst that myth. These are people who were in office at new year eve because they had no choice. Now it's open that no job is safe. It happened in 2008 than in 2020 on the pretext of economic downturn and covid. It's happening in 2023 out of greed. It's fine but employees now know that they can't rely on salary only.

A driver work is a lot harder and they don't get paid much. Still they have a choice of working less on some important day.

Bs...
Nobody is able to make a profit and it's because of greed?
Tech is the most overpaid and noisy component of any org. Highly thankless too.. Sure a driver making 25000 working 10 hours can choose not to work 😶‍🌫

Didn't know it was a tech layoff only 😑. I think you have some personal issues with tech.
