Definitely excuse. So many of these companies dramatically over hired during COVID, then after COVID saw a normalization of profits, and a loss because they over hired.

Take block for an example, double or tripled their employees since COVID, but around 2022-2023 their profits fell off hard - they said “AI” is why they’re doing cuts. No, they’re doing cuts because they’re going under

Why did I just open lemmy to this dude posting like 30 post about vaginas and penis

Paid healthcare isn’t better, it took me 2 days to get medicine I needed because of “referrals needed”

Now, think of this. We pay 24% federal and some of us pay 9% state tax, meaning people like in California lose 33% instantly and our benefit is…military? Ambulances cost $1000, hospital visits cost you a soul, or your first born. Yeah, I’d prefer to just pay 40% and have the benefits you have.

You know what’s sad, US companies will jump on it in a heart beat, they don’t care about America at all.

Yup, an extremely abused program by them to underpay, and hold them hostage to the company. They could easily hire Americans, especially in the bay, but they chose not to.

Damn, who knew the flip phones from 2005 would make a come back

One of the worst companies to work for, truly.

Yuup, crazy we elected Epstein’s best friend forever and now we’re being monitored not the child rapists

But get ban if you speak up against Elon or Republicans.

I understand its not a country.

Yeah, tbh it shocked me. I live in California smoking is rare here.

Yessir the right way to learn to type was to out spam the spammers in world chat on WoW and trade 1 world on RS in 2005.

I strongly disagree. I firmly believe that the “proper form” you and I were taught is why carpal tunnel is so common(I don’t think it one size fits all) People should do what’s comfortable for them. In fact, I’m pushing mid-30 and when I use proper form I get uncomfortable pain, and if I get a chair that doesn’t line up the armrest with my desk perfectly I also get uncomfortable pain. It’s possible that growing up with computers like I did I found what just worked for me, but I’ve never found the proper form comfortable. I’ve had computer classes up into my adult life.

With a good chair (my Herman) and wrist rest (a wood block) I’ve had 0 pain and work at my computer 8+ hours a day. I never leave my desk with any strain.

Hell almost every engineer I know doesn’t type properly. For me, the real problem is I always tuck a foot under me and sit on it. 😂

I had to break the nerd cycle that don’t touch grass, I gym 2 hours a day every day after work. And, don’t you know? The loudest keyboard in the office is the most dominate!! 😂
