    Yes I read about it, it was probably necessary but it sure makes him look like a j*rk. BTW, I'm Indian too and this type of stuff doesn't make me proud, if you know what I mean. :oops:

    The end result is that you are without a job - regardless of how you receive that information.
    A quick clean cut - call me names, but what's the problem?

    Yes, that's true I guess. I also misunderstood, I thought he had called the sacked employees ''robbers'' on the Zoom call, but he did this in a blog post. But anyway, he still decided to resign even though he was the founder of the company.
