Never forget
If you are an employee of the company that got bought, you should immediately start looking for a new job. You WILL get cut.

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/04/manufacturing-orders-from-china-down-40percent-in-demand-collapse.html
Demand from the U.S. has been trending down for some time.
Someone is not telling us the whole story. Not to say there won't be disruptions, but between cries of shortages and documented demand being down, something isn't making sense.
Too big to live, too loved to die: Big Tech's billion dollar curse of the free

Re: Centralised service, centralised problem.
This. All of this.
Just like the PC was designed to free us from the terminal/mainframe tyranny, everything about the Internet was intended as the same. To free us.
Yet everyone rushed headlong back to terminal/mainframe. With a LOT of help from those who wanted to force the walled garden on everyone.

Yes, but can we confirm they paid back the delivery staff?
See title.
Has anyone talked to the delivery people and confirmed they've been paid back? And if so, was it equal to the stolen tips?
My personal experience is that it takes years to get your money and often it is NOT equal to what was stolen.

Re: "Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade."
I learned many decades ago to never trust an employer. No one listened to me when I told them the reasons why.
Then the reasons only got worse. And still, my fellow proles insisted I was being negative.
Then it got even worse and I am no longer nice to people who kiss employers asses nor care when they get the wrong end of the stick. People who insist on hurting themselves are best avoided at all times.
