Today, we are parting away with 13% of us.

It is a wednesday.

Wednesdays are usually noisy. Since it is supposedly no meeting day. People tend to send more chat messages, open more pull requests, and write more posts. But today is especially quiet.

This is the 2nd time that I’ve been through this. Last time, it was worse. It was about 35%. Some have been with the company since the early days. Some were (supposedly) close friends with the CEO.

I cannot imagine being the leader in a situation like this. How can you face those who are…
