About 1000 Amazon employees in Seattle staged a massive walkout yesterday afternoon. Ostensibly to protest climate action and a return-to-office mandate. However it's hard to feel much sympathy or empathy towards these protesters (even as much as I loathe our similar return-to-office mandate). The issue is that these are white-collar tech workers rather than blue-collar warehouse workers. Which means they are inordinately overpaid, and are the reason why Seattle has become so expensive and such a nightmare to live in. So as far as I'm concerned, I don't give a monkeys about their "tough" working conditions. Ungrateful so-and-so's. I hope they suffer more layoffs.
