I keep seeing people saying they were "completely blind sided" by the PwC layoffs. Really? No one saw this coming? I'm surprised the number wasn't larger, to be honest.

I don't know who created this meme, but it speaks to me. I spend at least 50% of my time formatting PowerPoint and tweaking Excel columns. I'm starting to think my education wasn't necessary for this job. Anyone else think they wasted too much time in college?
