Here’s my experience with layoffs. At the first clue there will be a layoff the very best people, the ones you don’t want to lose
I had a similar experience with my only layoff.
It was in a telemarketing company, where I led the outbound calling center's computer department. The people who did the layoffs were not aware of exactly what my responsibility was, so, they blindly laid me off along with another person. Two week later they realized they had made a mistake and had to close down their outbound calling center, and laid off the rest of the staff that worked with me. They even asked me to help with the transition to a new manager for my old dept, but, that didn't work out since my replacement had no idea about how to work the system. So,they had to shut down the whole dept.
Oftentimes, upper management has no clue about repercussions, and that reminds me of what FOX is going thru.

Haven’t watched since they became fraud deniers 2 1/2 years ago.

I quit watching many years ago.
I tuned in to see Hannity the other day and was shocked to see how much he has aged! His hair was white and he had wrinkles all over. The last time I saw him he was still youthful, at least in appearance.................

My company was bought a few months ago but so far no real changes.
The guess is a few more months expect some.
Since there was 20 percent downturn in worldwide sales, that might speed up any changes, good or bad.
After three rounds of medical exile, I keep almost nothing in my office. What little I have in my bag isn’t much. Only two monitors, docking station, Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and a chair.
It’s also one of the larger offices.

The idea an average worker would spend twenty or thirty years at the same company vanished some decades ago. The only job security like that is in government. Not only that, our jobs and needed skills will evolve at an ever-increasing rate. Whole categories of career that were there when I started in 1980 have vanished. Typist, punch card operator, copier operator, secretary...all long gone. Now, thanks to aps and AI even technical jobs like legal assistant, accountant and tax preparer are endangered. Even the idea of being a permanent employee is almost gone.

I expect my ticket to get punched where I am in my organization’s IT department.
Certain legacy systems I wound up with are slated to go away and need to.
Get rid of them and someone with a decent understanding of Active Directory, zebra printer network setup, and some office 365 could replace me.

“FOX HAS GONE TO THE DARK SIDE.”
My exact thought when I read that Paul Ryan was joining their board.
I would so love to hear Rush Limbaugh’s thoughts on the downfall of his beloved Roger Aile’s creation of the Fox News Network.
I can hear him now, “It’s sad!”

When Ailes died I said Fox has maybe 2-3 years until it goes down the tubes. Well I was off by a year or so....

I remember back in the early ‘70s the XYZ manager came in one morning and looked at the bulletin board. On it was a memo from HR announcing his replacement.
To: Red Badger
At a company I worked for thirty-plus years ago, approximately 1000 employees, a couple of us guys in my department wanted to see how fast a rumor could spread within the company.
Other wise known as fake news.
You might have an opportunity at Fox.
But it does sound like a fun and interesting hobby. I will partake and report back.

The management team at Fox should have been the first they caused to problem.
Another lesson the left fails to understand.

Next look for Fox News to start contracting with airports to have their spew forced on the traveling masses. (Like CNN does.)
