    Layoffs will be a regular occurrence. Think you’re safe because you have a lot of seniority? My wife was laid off by Chase just a couple weeks before her 20 year anniversary. Funnily enough, they had just switched everyone to thin clients a year or two before.

      Lol I got a layoff notice last Thursday at another financial institute. Our whole environment is Lenovo. I noticed at the end of last year that 2025s upcoming EOL refresh was going to be all thin laptop conversions.

      But don’t worry guys, I can apply for 10 dollars less an hour to the new contractor they are bring on to delay the inevitable.
