> sometimes people get hired in bulk to show growth

Um no, this doesn't happen. Nobody is paying useless people just to "show growth".

Of the 8.1 billion humans alive, 3 billion of them have jobs (approximately). You are speaking for every single last one of them, that they weren't hired for some office political reason and every single last one of them is useful at their job? I haven't spoken to all of them, but I find that hard to believe.
The fact that you have to invoke "every single last one" of 8 billion people to demonstrate the possibility of this happening is pretty telling.
Oh you know this for an irrefutable fact, now?
Yes. It's the kind of thing stated by people who have never run a business.
You seem less deductive in your reasoning than desired for a good faith discussion, and pathological in your baseless accusations.

For example, I have run my own business before I hired people.

Good faith discussion? Your reply to me was "Oh you know this for an irrefutable fact, now?". What discussion is there to be had from a sarcastic quip that deliberately misses the point?

If you want to good faith discussion, address the substance of my comment.

Are you an llm trained to troll?
