There's whining about a class action lawsuit because 60 days notice wasn't given under the WARN act.

The article states they are employed until Feb 2023. They're on paid leave essentially.

If 90 satisfies the WARN act for notice, I assume it was a good business decision (cheaper solution) vs fighting a class action lawsuit and/or considering the damage these jokers could do if they remained employed within Twitter for 60 days after notice.

It doesn't even fall under WARN because they're on payroll for the next 90 days. He's just telling them to fuck off until then.

Yup. Here's your notice, now GTFO.

You came here looking for a job and now you will leave here looking for a job.

This happens to people every day in this country. Tech jobs are especially finicky and always have been in my experience. I’ve been laid off a bunch of times from jobs at digitally-based companies. I realized early in my career that it’s actually kind of normal, and so I stopped letting my identity be defined by my job.

During the lockdowns, many people lost their jobs, and the same thing happened with all the jab mandates. And yet, the media pretty much didn’t give a fuck for any of these people or decry their lives being upended unnecessarily.

But watch what happens here…I guarantee that the media will try to portray these ex Twitterati as some special cases who deserve everyone’s pity and support on a nationwide basis, rife with hyperbolic descriptions of homelessness and unfair misfortune…if only that same media would have given the same amount of fucks for the average person over the last two years.

My message to those laid off is simply “sorry you lost your job. Enjoy your vacation and then get back out there and find the next chapter in your life like literally everyone else has had to do at some point in their lives. You’re not any more special than the millions who lost their jobs and livelihoods over the last two years. Man up and don’t be a little bitch about it.”

Way too generous. Give them 2 weeks. Add their accrued vacation time, unused sick time and a boot out the door like most corporations do.

Fuck Twitter and fuck Twitter faggot shitlibs. Absolute scum, the lot of them.
