Filings reviewed by Newsweek show that thousands of Amazon employees across Washington, California, Maryland, and New York are slated to lose their jobs on Tuesday, April 28. Some job losses are at the corporate office in New York City, while others are tied to the shuttering of Amazon Fresh grocery stores. Amazon is also laying off 691 workers on Monday in Virginia.

    Getting fired is when a worker fucked up, layoffs are when management fucked up. Laying off hundreds or thousands of workers across multiple states is a fuck up probably on the scale of negligence. But under corporatism/fascism wealthy idiots who pay the right bribes aren’t held accountable.
