FIREPOWER 719 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) I’m sure the employees over at Activision can’t wait to be acquired and then laid off Waiting for lemshits to tell me how these layoffs are a good thing for Activision. MS laying off staff at Bathesda and 343 while fighting in court to purchase ABK for $70 Billion. Edited January 18, 2023 by FIREPOWER Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. House 3,371 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 If MS ruins Bethesda in any way, I will find Phil Sphincter and skin him alive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Laying off 5% of the work force (increasing profits) is not. Again, it shows you’re a customer service rep and nothing higher.

sugarhigh 519 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 If you work at Activision right now, you better be looking for a job. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TLHBO 2,162 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Remember all the lemshits at reeeeeetardera pretending they wanted the aqqusition to go through so Activision/Blizzard workers would have better working conditions? how about they beg MS to cancel the buy out and use the 70 billion to keep these 10,000 workers in a job at a time when mass layoffs are making it harder to find enployment in the tech sector? No? I'm betting none of them care about the workers anymore 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The simplest explanation is: you're an idiot who wouldn't be trusted with handling the accounting to a lemonade stand. Edited January 18, 2023 by jehurey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The simplest explanation is: you're an idiot who wouldn't be trusted with handling the accounting to a lemonade stand. Yes, yes I can. They are entirely different things. One results in the company having less money, the other results in a company having more money. Again, you working as a customer service rep is showing here. Stuck at the same shitty job for years and years, looking for new opportunities, but no one would take a 40 year old with no skills or talents. lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FIREPOWER 719 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) MS is fighting in court right now to buy Activision for $70 Billion and at the same time laying off 10,000 employees including workers at Bathesda and 343. I'm sure the FTC and EU are looking at this and noting how it would be great for MS to consolidate the industry. These are the retards the morons like Ghostz and Lemij want to run the industry Bathesda hasn't even launched Starfield yet and MS is already laying people off.
