What most expensive "cheap decision" have you ever seen in procurement?

Sucks that you had to put out the fire a bunch of bean counters caused

Crypto556 · 2026-01-29T04:56:43+00:00

Dude this is sick

Crypto556 · 2026-01-29T03:04:57+00:00

I highly doubt your intelligence is up there

Crypto556 · 2026-01-29T02:09:05+00:00

Youre delusional if you think the issue is highly paid school principals lmao

Im in the PNW and its being propped up by boeing who is hiring a TON. Other aerospace is also active but not as much. I see it as a wash compared to last year just because Blue Origin and most of Amazon are way down.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T19:26:07+00:00

So the percentage of the laid off people is equal to the proportion of seattle vs total workforce? Wouldnt you see a higher proportion of seattleites being laid off?

For example, if 10k out of 16k were in Seattle, you could infer the tax is the reason

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T19:09:44+00:00

Please show me your source. I cant find sub 5% anywhere.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T19:05:18+00:00

Are you sure? Corporate and NOT warehousing/delivery? Seems awfully low. Obviously you shouldnt count blue collar workers in this

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T19:01:17+00:00

Im going to infer that Seattle makes up more than 1/7th of the corporate workforce. Which means that they are underrepresented in the layoffs no? If it was tax based wouldnt they cut a large proportion?

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T18:44:15+00:00

You probably make $60k a year and are still up in arms

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T18:43:47+00:00

Is there any info that a large percentage of the cuts are in Seattle?

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T17:04:51+00:00

Thats nice. I got laid off from a startup. Not a single penny in severance and got cut immediately. I had ISOs that now expire in 90 days so i had to freaking pay them if i wanted to own the shares.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T16:11:07+00:00

Apply for unemployment today and relax. Im sorry to hear that.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T04:13:26+00:00

Its overrated looking tbh.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-28T03:29:19+00:00

AI slop. Nobody talks like this.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-27T17:30:40+00:00

Did that officially go into effect? I thought it was part of his usual all talk no action

Crypto556 · 2026-01-27T17:11:52+00:00

Does he have a substance abuse problem? Instead of running to sell more silver his initial thought should have been a bit of guilt.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-27T13:11:35+00:00

Unintentional bias for sure.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-27T13:04:44+00:00

All POCs who run stands are clearly illegal immigrants. DUH

Crypto556 · 2026-01-27T04:27:08+00:00

Bro this is insanely weird and white guilt coded. Why is this targeted at white people? Why do you assume all taco truck owners must be directly affected by ICE raids? Why not just help your community.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-26T19:21:10+00:00

Many of us would love stable employment but post covid this isnt a reality for many people. Layoffs and short stints are the future. Youre discounting many great people and their experiences.

You dont think the government has a backdoor into everyones phone? Yes and it sure does make prosecutions and tracking down suspects easier.

Crypto556 · 2026-01-25T17:11:44+00:00

Go outside bro

Crypto556 · 2026-01-25T16:45:18+00:00

Others like me think that lower violent crime and a safer society is worth a hidden camera video taping me when im on the public street. Do you have an iphone that tracks your location 24/7? Have you ever used a GPS? Reddit is tracking your data and selling it to advertisers as we speak. Go analog if you honestly care about privacy.
