Why You Were Laid Off: The World Doesn’t Run on Right or Wrong
The truth is, most people's jobs are funded by capital that executives sell with忽悠. If everything goes smoothly, everyone's happy, but the world stays stuck in old patterns and nothing new ever emerges—and most people end up unemployed.
Companies hire you to solve problems, not to lecture them on reasoning. If you love arguing principles so much, go apply to be a monk at a temple. Do you actually want to get things done, or do you want to sabotage them?
Executives go straight to the investors and say, "This direction won't work." The investors slap their thighs and say, "Great—you just saved me money. Now get out." Since this approach is dead ends, why should I invest in you?
You say construction can't proceed? Simple—just leave. Whoever says it can't be done gets shown the door. There's always someone who claims it can be done, right? Whoever says yes gets to be department manager—which is why the managers you see are all playing dumb.
They clearly can't deliver, yet they claim they can. Everyone knows the results won't be handed over, yet they still have to try—so what do they use? Overtime, of course. Even when investors already know they've backed the wrong horse, they still play along, because they need someone else to take the hit.
If the economy is booming, there's always a new investor ready to pick up your line, so you keep enjoying that high salary. If the economy sours, sorry—there's no money to burn anymore. Fewer investors overall, and you'll be laid off.
