    This was an out of context thing that got headlines because he said it to an employee that Amazon (like all companies) will fail someday. There's no actual weight to that statement. Amazon became the second company to pass a trillion in worth last year. That money doesn't dissipate quickly lmao.

    You said

    Which insinuates soon enough to even care about and that's just not the case.

    Amazon ain't going anywhere anytime soon. See AWS.

    There's no 'insinuation', which implies that I use weasel words. I make direct and specific statements, and I'm happy to point out your mistake:

    does not insinuate anything. It clearly and openly states Amazon is at the beginning of the end. One would not expect a giant corporation to die tomorrow.

    Why you went into a panic and omitted that portion of the post is neither my concern nor my care.

    I mean I'm not trying to have a war of vocabulary or intellect with you, but a normal person reading your statement would likely take it as you instructing others to prepare for Amazon's demise when really that's not going to be a thing probably in their lifetime. I'm not panicking at all lmao you're being weird.

    The Morgan typing HIT is very good. Cooking it so I won't review for a while but it's <10 mins for an average typer.

    I disagree that normal people would read it that way. Normal people realize that giant corporations do not disappear overnight. I give credit to people who read my posts, and expect the ones who are uniformed enough to think Amazon would disappear overnight to have grown bored by my 3rd point and get back to their Instagram selfies.

    I do not make 'insinuations', I make statements. I take umbrage with your accusation, and that is not 'weird'. That is how adults interact.

    Now that you know that my statement was made with a primer-level of business or general world knowledge expected of a reader, say 10th-grade level proficiency, we can stop talking about this. Everyone here should be 18 and able to read and if they are not, that is their problem, not mine.

    Actually a pay bump on the unusual scenarios survey. Still seems like it'll be low hourly, though.
