"Why are we suddenly looking for an intern?"
Hearing this, my brother-in-law the director let out a sarcastic laugh. "Didn't HR just axe a whole bunch of our people?"
Seeing his expression change, Red Glasses immediately chimed in indignantly, "Exactly, 'employee optimization'—how did that end up optimizing us? They always need us to cooperate with their work, and now they turn around and burn the bridge after crossing the river… Actually, no, that's not even right. They haven't even crossed the river yet. I really don't get it."
The director brother-in-law waved a hand. "I talked to them. There's a new specialist over there trying to hit her KPIs, doesn't understand the ropes. She quietly blew things up until it reached the boss. At that point, not cutting people wasn't an option."
