They used a thanos style random number generator. If the day in your DOB is an odd number you were fired.

Well, I guess you don't want unlucky people working for you!

It is on the listicle of things to make you highly successful.

- Wake up at 4am every day.

- Only hire lucky people (they get to work for you that instantly makes them one of the lucky ones right!?)

- Fire the unlucky people or the people having a bad day (its a pretty bad and/or unlucky day when you get fired, if they had any luck at all you wouldnt have thought of their name when you decided to fire someone)

> - Fire the unlucky people

The perfect way to select for luck! Fire people randomly, therefore you will on average only have lucky people working for you! Genius!

I don't think they really care who get fired. To those executives in large organizations, individual contributors are no more than a number. As long as they can make the numbers they do care looking better, no one really matters much.
