Many people have been wondering for years: University students who graduate in "gender studies" and similar, and do not study nor learn any actual practical skills nor knowledge that would help them build a career... how exactly do they earn a living after graduating? They don't know anything useful, so how exactly are they earning any money?
As I wrote in a past blog post, one way they manage to survive is by leeching on huge corporations (those with thousands or even tens of thousands of employees): They manage to get hired somehow, and then they just try to pass under the radar, doing very minimal work if any, while still billing full hours.
In that post I mentioned of an event that happened a few years ago: One day they CEO of a big company named Better.com fired over 900 employees who were "underperformers". According to sources, the worst of the bunch quite literally showed up to work, did something menial for like 2 hours, and then just went home, while still marking full 8 hours (and sometimes even more!) in their daily timesheet. The CEO of the company apparently had started taking note of what people were actually doing in the company, collected the list of these leeches who were doing pretty much nothing (while still billing full hours), and just fired them on the spot, all at once.
Recently, when Elon Musk purchased Twitter, he did the exact same thing: He fired a huge bunch of "underperforming" leeches from the company, who were doing pretty much nothing yet still billing full hours. According to sources the company has not suffered any losses from this mass firing, but pretty much the opposite (work is much more efficient now because there are less leeches around burdening the system).
I don't know if it has been partially caused by Musk's action or whether it's completely coincidental, but recently there has been a series of such layoffs of "underperformers" in many major corporations.
Recently Spotify announced that they will be firing about 600 of their 9800 employees, Microsoft announced that they will be laying off about 10 thousand employees, Amazon by 18 thousand employees, and Google 12 thousand employees. At least in the case of Google, "underperformers" has been explicitly mentioned.
It seems to me that the industry, especially big tech, is finally waking up to the problem of far-leftist leeches. Of people with no skill, no knowledge, no talent, leeching off the company, essentially defrauding the company by billing enormous amounts of work hours that are not actually being done.
And it's not like some of these leeches are keeping it all hush-hush and on the down-low. Because these far-leftist millenials tend to be hooked on social media and video sharing websites like TikTok, some of them outright broadcast to millions of people how easy their job is, working for a huge megacorporation where they get to enjoy all the employment benefits and do almost no work of any kind. (For example one particularly infamous leech had been making a TikTok video series where she showed how wonderful it was to work for Google: She could just order fancy drinks and eat expensive food for free, stroll around, use massage chairs, go to a couple of meetings... and that's about it. A full work day doing pretty much nothing but a few meetings.)
And of course they are now crying because they are being fired from their jobs. They seem to think they are entitled to the money they were paid, for doing pretty much nothing. They seem to think that companies like Google should be charities that pay them money and offer them tons of employment benefits, in exchange for almost nothing.
