    So I mean these are really not big layoffs. I even have family at one of the largest ones and considering the size of the company, this is nothing. I mean everything up there is what 20k-25k?

    For those who were around in the early 90s. the 00s and 2008/9 or 2020. People really need to come to reality. In 2008 in the last 3 months of the year there were 2.8 million and 2009 there were 5.1 million.
