    "When Twitter fired half of its employees in 2022, and most tech giants followed suit, I wasn’t surprised. In fact, I think little will change for those companies. After being employed in the tech sector for years, I have come to the conclusion that most people in tech don’t work. I don’t mean we don’t work hard; I mean we almost don’t work at all. Nada. Zilch. And when we do get to do some work, it often brings low added value to the company and its customers. All of this while being paid an amount of money some people wouldn’t even dream of."

    • You get that in big advertising agencies. I did three months of nothing. Turns out I was a line item on the client invoice to bump profits.shapesalad
    • Eg tell client the task requires 3 designers. Get a freelancer in at £325 per day, invoice for designer at £450 pd to client, keep the difference.shapesalad
