Putting someone’s job title in quotes like that is super condescending. It’s bad taste, especially when you make more and you’re commenting on a post where 1,400 of them got laid off.

It's in quotes with an inline description because, while it's the actual job title for the positions in question, it's also a common English word that in most circles would refer to a "hair stylist".
Ascribing negative intentions to minor punctuation and making up biographies about your fellow commentators says more about your bad taste and biases than mine.
