Most places? Are you a human? Have you been to the United States?

Do you genuinely think McDonald’s is building a months long case against a fry cook? That Amazon is building a months long case against a delivery driver or warehouse worker who refused to pee in a bottle? That target is putting a cashier on a pip for months and allowing lost sales or theft?

The article is about tech interviews (and tech workers with the resources to sue), not McDonald’s or blue collar?

And yes, I’m human?

Strange comment internet stranger.

It isn’t strange in 2026 to wonder if an internet comment is from a human.

Tech workers have been laid off (without pips) en masse for the past 24 months, so it seems like I’m talking to a model trained in 2023 to be so absent of the obvious facts around us in the industry.

That’s why I ask. Because you’re either not in the industry and talking bullshit, not paying attention to the world around you, or a bot.

The comment chain is about firing people for cause (performance issues), not layoffs.

You seem determined to feel attacked ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
