[@tdf123emcee2]

Most of their jobs are not really needed. Once you train an employee to complete documentation, that's when their job ends. So they micromanage to justify the position.

[@lonnysstuff8773]

Consultants have a term for those people: “warm bodies”. Many managers aren’t good leaders, and they compound that flaw with being indecisive. That combination frequently results in building teams with a couple overachievers and a bunch of warm bodies. It’s status quo-until the next purge. We’re in the purge stage of this cycle.

[@jeffML3926]

All the tech and data analytics companies making job cuts makes a ton of sense though for that industry, from a business perspective... more money to the company by laying off part of the worforce. Jobs can become redundant int hat space once they meet their goals and complete marketable products. 'Full-time' is basically just a long contract for them (i.e. until they can justify layoffs).

[@gillianlopez3470]

I’m not trying to be funny but I love watches too. I got the seiko Bruce Lee limited edition and am ogling the Uranus swatch

[@Mark-ef7pi]

Despite these layoffs, JOLTs surged and yesterday's job report doubled expectations. NYCB isn't necessarily indicative of regionals, they made bad purchases that resulted in their first losses ever. There's also another big factor not discussed by many, the treasury is issuing much more short term debt than long-term, this was predicted in 2021 by Russel Napier.. In short, things aren't as ominous as they appear, we're due for a correction, but it won't be end-of-days.

[@jeffrosati2570]

The jobs numbers are grossly inaccurate as usual and will be adjusted downward again as has been the case for the past year.

[@Mark-ef7pi]

@@jeffrosati2570 Yes, I see that a lot on angry right wing blogs trying to downplay the current admin. You could also cherry-pick ADP, but they only cover a small basket of large corporations.

[@someonethirsty1957]

I believe the jobs that are being created are part time as well. So it's probably a lot of second jobs, not necessarily true job growth.

[@MsTudor77777]

Thank you Andrei for all the wonderful content that you provide! I know that the majority of your viewers are from North America, but I was wondering if maybe you could try to do a video on what you would recommend for an European investor.

[@westdeaton4127]

Hearing all this about lay offs, Could you explain why unemployment is still at 3.7 but the amount of jobs created doubled?? Thanks

[@tdf123emcee2]

I think it's because disposability. Retail jobs, customer service, etc - are more disposable than a lawyer, economist, etc. Microsoft is probably laying off staff programmers that perform boring maintenance on their software. So its repetitive. I would even say, repetitive and "boring" jobs, will suffer the most. While more technical specific jobs will still appear, specially jobs requiring leadership experience.

[@Ahda108]

Two days later. fed didnt lower the interest rate.. Economy still stagnant

[@Barter709]

I didn't get the raise I asked for Yesterday

[@CaedenV]

Don't ask for raises. If you don't get regular reviews and regular raises then just move on. You are an adult, your employers are adults. Nobody in the relationship should be a whiney brat asking for raises. And nobody in the relationship expects someone to stay without regular raises. Still though, it sucks not getting something you need, or something that was expected. Hang in there, build skills, and eventually your day will come. You only need a few real successes in a life full of failure to be considered a success. The only difference between the successful and the failures are those who give up before they get their break. Stay stubborn until that happens.

[@AAliyahMya]

[@shaddcaldwell4976]

Did I understand correctly that UPS is a tech business?

[@XORTION]

Some companies are due to their in house manufacturing processes, like Ocado

[@xESOTERlC]

Of most of the companies you mentioned (making cuts), of course a large portion is due to drying up of influx of "free money", but I believe an equally large portion is from incorporation of new AI tools/equipment. Beginning in the tech sector, we will see equal portions spreading out to other industries over the next few years.

[@matthewsemenuk7544]

Edit: I guess i should watch before commenting.. Feb 2nd job report seemed great! Doesn't look like there is trouble at all with jobs. NYCB bought SV banks assets at pennies on the dollar so maybe SV owned some loans related to commercial real estate (currently a risky asset) and now needs to use the fed as a clearing house instead of settling with other banks? Rates are remaining high because everything is going so well and a wage to inflation spiral is imminent? -not that a believe things are going that "well". Usually when things go this "well" it is very unsustainable for a lengthy period of time.
