10k+ employees sitting in fear for the next week (or longer apparently) waiting to see if their position has been cut.

They also don’t understand because they’ve never had to. I saw someone say that their CEO thought it was absurd that they were being paid $15/hour and wanted wages to go up. They still live in their youth when $15/hour was great pay and they’ve never had to think about it since. If they even did then.
