I guess this means having really expensive lunches and living in Manhattan just got a bit more difficult for those laid off. So sad!

The laid off folks have more time now to practice “Good Housekeeping” at home.

Lol.

Ijust stopped using Mozilla Firefox because they have some AI thing taking up space on the screen, and when I tried to get rid of it, the only thing I could do was move from the left to the right. I guess the programmers at Firefox never heard the expression “vote with your feet”

That’s ok; these liberals can always get jobs with the federal government, like NPR or PBS which are taxpayer funded. Of course, now, maybe not, since hopefully their budgets will be cut to zero.

"Shakespeare quote?"

No, not a Shakespeare quote. However I was imagining myself as on actor on stage mocking a Zeeper audience.

A lot of this is just changing technology. I spoke recently to people who produce two slick, monthly, high color regional business magazines.

The mags are almost 100% produced by two talented women on their computers.

More than 400 Condé Nast staffers stage one-day walkout to protest layoffs

By Liam Reilly, CNN
January 23, 2024

Vogue took a hit earlier in the year.

The protest comes after Condé Nast announced on November 1 it was planning to cut 5% of its workforce. The company then revised the plan, announcing it would lay off 94 unionized members, or some 20% of the Condé Nast Union.
