Did they get Bammie’s permission for these layoffs? Swear on oath of perjury that they’re not being disrespectful to the Fascist-in-chief?

But Lotus Notes will stay alive. I guess it would take shuttering IBM completely to kill off that horrid software.

I never cried when I got laid off.

Besides, these people just need to listen to democrats to learn unemployment is super fun.

Didn’t you get the memo? They are not layoffs, they are “liberations”.

And the Free Trader Globalists keep telling us Free Trade works...

These companies now have to lay off the underskilled, underpaid Indians hired to replaced the skilled, better compensated Americans.

Now they’ll have more time to spend with their families, it’s a blessing.

The Indian layoffs were probably a sweetener to get Lenovo to buy its server business. Wouldn't be surprised if IBM is hiring in Shanghai.

Of course, they weren’t this sad when they had the jobs that were “outsourced” from other employees.
