Anything done to keep headcount above necessary levels would have caused slower hiring and in turn caused the demand shock to go on even longer. I'm curious about your solution though. How many people do they need to keep on staff that are not doing anything? How much profit are they allowed? Do they have to lose money before they are allowed to trim the workforce? Do they need to be prepared for another COVID-level demand surge? |

They could also reduce the amount of hours that everyone works. It's high time for another reduction in hours-per-week anyway.

In a society that values its citizens over its corporations, yes.

It's not unlikely that there will be a surge once the Russians get booted out of Ukraine.
