@PressSec What the fuck did we win????
We sent 13 troops home in coffins.
Thousands of Iranians are dead including schoolchildren.
Tens of billions of dollars to give Iran their wishlist.
Go gaslight somewhere else KKKaroline.
@BCB_Sara Thats weird. Royals honored the ticket from Friday night for the Sat night makeup game only with no exchange required. I know a lot of folks stuck around from the normal Sat game so I'm not sure how the seats worked out that way.
I'm sorry, excuse me, what?
So if you bought tickets to the April 4th Cubs game, you either have to pay more to go to an Easter Sunday doubleheader (Note: the last time Cubs will be in Cleveland this year) or just suck it up and watch someone else?
This policy sucks.
I am the SVP of Workforce Planning at Oracle.
I scheduled the email for 6 AM.
Because at 6 AM, people are alone.
They haven't carpooled yet.
They haven't had the conversation in the elevator where someone says "did you get it too" and suddenly forty of them are in a conference room asking questions we'd prefer not to answer.
At 6 AM, a person reads an email alone at their kitchen table. That's organizational design.
We eliminated approximately 18% of the global workforce.
I've been asked to stop giving the range. The board prefers "approximately." Approximately doesn't require counting, and counting requires acknowledging these were individual people.
System access was revoked within minutes. An employee who can still log in feels like an employee. A former employee refreshes their personal email and waits for the severance PDF.
We modeled the timeline. The window between reading the email and attempting to badge into the building is approximately twelve minutes. We revoked access at minute four.
Oracle posted a 95% jump in net income last quarter. We made a $124 billion bet on AI infrastructure, and the fastest source of cash flow is the people who built the products we're now replacing with the infrastructure we went into debt to build.
The workers funded their own obsolescence.
Stock rose 4% on the announcement. The market looked at 30,000 salaries converting into debt service and called it a buy signal.
The people who made the bet will be paid regardless of how it turns out. The people who got the 6 AM email will not.
I scheduled the next one for 6 AM too.
@Chad2000k@gothburz Oh ok wow- you’re talking about today?
My understanding is at one of the campuses in MA they made you swipe in this morning at the main door (which normally is left open). The side doors we always require a swipe
At this point best thing to do is take it a month at a time
@WhooFleuryScore@gothburz Agreed there! Except most dont open their laptops until they arrive if they were going in on a scheduled day. Tues-Thurs are common scheduled hybrid in person days. There were dozens of cars turned around at the security gate at my local campus because of that.
@Chad2000k@gothburz A lot of the groups left in the US are working hybrid or remote now though.
If and when you get the email you already know the only reason you need to go in is to get your personal
Items at your desk (for those who still keep a desk at one of the Oracle campuses left in the US).
@gothburz Meanwhile your manager has no clue. Luckily was able to download the packet via mobile since you can't email it to yourself, usb drives are blocked. People resorted to printing 38 pages on their own printer frantically before their work email and laptop locks.
@gothburz Left out in that half assed AI generated email at 5am to your work inbox was zero information other than you don't go to work. Then 9 hours later you get the actual packet via docusign website link in your work inbox. 2 hours after that your work inbox is locked and you're SOL.
Cashed the dubclub Miami builder🎾

Come on @delta you can do better than this. This is so amateurish. If you want your pax to fill out the Hawaii Agricultural forms, have the FAs walk through the cabin with a QR code like other airlines do.
BREAKING🚨: Chaos at LGA Terminal B this morning! The TSA PreCheck line is so backed up it's wrapping around every room and stretching all the way out to the parking garage. Plan extra time if you're flying out of here!
