Wish that this somehow translated to the people in charge of the shitshow being replaced, but I'm pretty sure it's the workers who will suffer instead. This failure is 1000% on an executive culture of "cut corners so line goes up", not the thousands of people who actually build the darn things.

It’s always the workers that suffer, even when things aren’t going horribly wrong. Corporations don’t care about people, they care about money. Making money, saving money, in that order. Employees are just numbers to them.

Employees are just numbers to them.

But unlike other numbers, those numbers must go down.
