The real joke is the ceo admitting fault. You can always blame “the market”, “inflation” and “lackluster employee performance”!
Or the new one: “rightsizing”
“I take full responsibility. You’re fired.”
"I don’t understand! This is the 5th company I’ve owned that has failed! Why can’t I find the right people?!?!?!’
fifth panel: Have fun doing the work of 3 people
Sixth panel: btw the board has rewarded me for the downsizing and gave me a raise

And that’s where it becomes unrealistic.
Edit: I was dumb. I thought you were talking about the employees.
I think the boss got a raise/bigger bonus, not the employee. Then it’s very realistic (:
I wish it was.
Can’t believe this was left out.
I love being told that “we” need to tighten our belts by an executive that gets millions upon millions in total compensation.
Our CIO who recently retired was often famous for justifying low/no raises or bonuses by saying “Well, money isn’t everything” and yet still buying an airplane to casually fly
Buying a plane can be a lot cheaper than you think, to be fair.
How many do you have?
I have other expensive hobbies. But you can buy an airworthy aircraft for well under 100k.
Does it mean I could get an airunworthy aircraft for cheaper?!
Jeremy Clarkson bought an English Electric Lightning airframe for basically scrap value, and put it in his front yard at one point.
It wasn’t even that expensive.
Minimum 20k for an 40 year old Cessna 150 with not many miles left in the engine before mandatory overhaul (roughly every 10,000 hours of use, though it depends on the engine), last I checked.
Then those things require regular mechanical check-ups, and by regular I mean every 50 hours of flight, then a more thorough one every 100 hours of flight and so on.
It’s only a “cheap” hobby if you’re doing it as an amateur pilot who can also do the mechanical stuff and only flies in a country where regulations are de facto optional to follow.
Otherwise it’s at best a hobby for doctors, finance traders and high paid lawyers, not Common Joe.
roughly every 10,000 hours of use, though it depends on the engine
Overhaul period for a Lycoming piston engine is typically 1800-2200 hours. You’d be lucky if the engine even made it to 10k.
I think you missed the point.
But now the security guard has work to do, they’re creating jobs!
Cloudflare.
I’ve only seen four or five of these comics and each one of them is funnier than anything Scott Adams ever put out.
Some of you will be laid off, but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
I should become security, they are always there still working when the firings happens.
They have the same problem as IT.
We don’t have any security issues. What do we pay you for?

Yeah sure, I was just joking.
“No, I don’t know who broke your car’s windows. I don’t work for you anymore, stop hassling me.”
The buck stops here.
And by buck I mean money - what did you think I meant, responsibility? HAHAHAHAH! :-P [sob]
