I mean people in major cities are still buying houses with a view. I see a lot of properties go pending quick. Aren’t there enough people getting laid off ?

The disproportionate number of layoffs are within the blue collars. There are still plenty of high-income people working from home in major cities

Many of the people being laid off are not as fortunate as those purchasing houses.

There isn’t one group of people. There are those with money and those without.

There are people who love close to the line and when they loose their job they are in trouble. The people who have lost their jobs so far are those in the service economy, think hair dressers, Resturant workers.

So far those with means are still working from home (lawyers, accountants, consultants) are still earning money. These are the people who will buy houses, they have the money for a down payment and when the time comes they’ll rent out part of it to the Resturant workers etc.

Not the people buying houses with views.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.
