Google NYC employees who arrived at the office early this morning stood in a line to test their badges - if light turned red, it meant you had been laid off. if green, you were safe.

If if you're colorblind? You hit the jackpot.

LMAO! Google portrays itself as this woke paradise where everyone is included, especially if you're non-white and part of the alphabet people, yet they treat their employees like cattle going to slaughter. Not even enough balls to send an email and avoid embarrassing people in public. I'd love to see the math on what they pay executives vs. these employees. Like how much of a pay cut would they really need to take to save those jobs?

It's like a dystopian electronic scratch-off lottery ticket. Red, you lose and go home. Green, you win and get to work for another day.

The unemployed should be glad. Their brave sacrifice will enable Google's higher ups to avoid taking ruinous pay cuts that would impact their QoL.

Maybe Google knows that NYC is about to get nuked.

But why NYC?
