Yeah, I had the same thought. I’m actually usually levelheaded about this stuff, sometimes bad things happen.

This post just set me off and I dunno why. The post itself felt really sanctimonious and self unaware, then the reactions were from bizarro world. Every one was congratulatory, with next to no consideration about the people that just got the unceremonious boot.

So, lemme get this straight? Slashes the workforce by 2/3rds “today” with no financial reason to. “Takes responsibility” and resigns (Needed a well earned break), probably keeps his sweet, sweet founder shares and gets a noice send off. Definitely keeps the board seat. What a hero!
