Do you know how much hiring and job hopping happened over COVID?

Stripe began aggressively hiring in Europe in 2021: https://twitter.com/collision/status/1356275041277657088

The same applies to all the big tech cos. Facebook was actually complaining about not being able to find talent as recently as December. [0]

I can not understand how your comment relates to the parent in any meaningful way. The tech hiring boom that occurred with Covid was certainly one contributor to over-staffing.

The parent is simply stating that market conditions are changing and that it might not necessarily a given that it will be so easy to find something new if we continue to see layoffs. That all seems pretty logical. However your response seem to be two links that are now a year out of date and bizarre statement to "Stop believing the bullshit you're being fed"?
