- Whoever is paying you is your customer, no matter what alternative word we use for it. If you're an employee, your customer is your "employer." If you're being acquired, your customer is your "acquirer."

That is none-sens.

If that were true, all profits would go to the customers. No, you are hired because the company and its owners can extract the profits from your work. Laying you off could mean nothing to customers, but even more profits to them.

Why? What does that mean?

Nothing you said here changes the fact that your employer is your customer, paying for your services. If you don't see it that way, it's to your own detriment.
