Your reverend here works in tech, and I'd like to comment on the tech layoffs.
This one feels a lot like social contigation, as folks discussed. There was less warning than I normally see. It feels like bandwagon-jumping.

Indeed. And I too know a lot of people in the IT field. I follow this closely.
@ArcturusSaDiablo glad to meet someone else who follows these trends. Because yeah, its rarely what it seems in casual reporting.
When well paying positions that aren't too overspecialized sit unfilled for a year, you got issues.
@ArcturusSaDiablo I normally talk more "fun" things on this account, but to get seriously they screwed themselves.
COVID had a devestating effect on the population and brought a lot of economic shifts. They're going to have a harder time hiring.
