In a funk today, was listening to @npr this morning, with a story about the ongoing and consistent layoffs within the Tech industry. Having gone through one myself 2 years ago, and just having my current company do a 10% haircut, it really hits home. #layoffs

It's weird that some lies are told over and over, and we don't do a thing about it, and a little bit of though in it shows the contradictions of the reality.
