Soundly I presume.
To men like that, 12k people he never met is just statistics, and this should speak volumes about their morality. Even worse so, as it really doesn't matter whether he met them or not - that's what charity is for ... and tax evasion.

@frankboon @fuzzychef

It will be satisfying to see his net worth become $12000!

And shame on #SundarPichai for taking the pressure.

@Mayank @fuzzychef Everyone was all in on screwing over Citadel in that thing, and Citadel just had its most profitable year(which the media is stating is the largest single profit by any hedge fund ever cnn.com/2023/01/23/investing/c). I'm sorry to break it to you, but people got played if they thought they were hurting anyone but the regular people who missed the boat.

@Mayank @fuzzychef Money is involved. More of it than they had before. They sleep just fine.

@drwho @fuzzychef

yeah checked. He made $1.9 Million per day last year.

And he was the boss of Rishi Sunak at one time.

I can't take this anymore, I need to dial down..

@drwho @fuzzychef

It's funny to me now to think that I will be drowning myself in work.. that's where I get peace 🕊️

Not going for tea, it's already 3:30 AM and I wanted to sleep, but this has been a nightmare knowing rich assholes can sleep better after ruining the sleep of thousands

I have a job for now, it makes me wonder...who will pull the strings and it will all come crashing.

I think I will keep thinking more and will eventually crash!

@drwho @fuzzychef
In any case I am happy to not open Twitter and Cameron masto instead. At least I got to have wonderful conversations here.

Thank you and everyone else who chatted with me.

@Mayank @fuzzychef All I can really say is, there is no stability, really. Have a backup plan and keep your resume up to date.

Mayank Gupta

@drwho @fuzzychef exactly, I have been doing that only.

Have been able to build a decent Upwork profile as a backup. And now I am focusing on building my website/blog to ensure that it can help me stand out from the crowd if I end up facing the undesirable situation.

Also trying to upskill as much as I can.

Are you taking any particular steps?

The Doctor

@Mayank @fuzzychef Updated resume, plus taking advantage of a severance subscription to a resume editing/consulting/legwork service (hey, I'll take any help I can get, force multipliers are good, actually). Heavy networking (which is how I'm getting hold of some of that information). Playing with a few things (Grafana is next). Going to start asking some previous employers if they're hiring. I should do some formal studying, too.

Darkstar

@Mayank @fuzzychef if it is indeed coordinated and this guy in involved in the layoffs at Microsoft, Spotify and so on, it is more than 50,000 people ...

Mayank Gupta

@darkstar @fuzzychef
Wow! I was going nuts on 12000 and what you are saying is only making me wish this guy goes to hell, if there is one.

It's beyond me, how much money is enough... Guy already has 7 billion worth and made almost 2 million per day last year...

At what point will he feel that I don't need more..

Catherine is Tired

@Mayank @darkstar @fuzzychef never. People like that are dragons , sleeping on piles of gold in between wreaking havoc. Nothing will ever be enough.
