"The head of emotional manipulation and deflection will be releasing an official statement shortly"

Marc Benioff: “Indeed, and rest assured that, with some form of emotions, I announce today that this is truly one of the days we’ve ever had. Despite this departure of our 700 wage slaves, we must continue to strive for greatness, adjust for new demands in this market, synergize our corpo-speak, become leaner, agile, and more aggressive, and certainly pad the coffers of the owner class.”

“We must be ready to innovate in our space. For this fiscal year, our teams need to be ready and work themselves to their bones. I expect our sales force to sleep on our SalesForce factory floor, with no detours forever more for sure.”
