Executives do not see workers as people with skillsets. They're numbers on a spreadsheet. And having ten highly paid workers quit "voluntarily" makes the numbers do good things.

Actually, they're not even numbers on a spreadsheet. They're data points in a graph. Executives don't have time to understand numbers, let alone people.

Ain't that the truth. My company is thinking about replacing all of their technical staff with AI. That's going to be utterly hilarious to watch from the sidelines.
