Addressing the Layoffs at Netflix

Reedular sent the following email to Netflix employees earlier today. Greeting to my fellow Members, It is with deep regret that I must inform you that due to an unforeseen infestation of wizards in our headquarters, we are forced to layoff 10% of the Netflix workforce. I take full accountability for this decision, as I recognize the impact it will have on all of you and your families. It all started on a fateful Wednesday morning, when a large black thundercloud appeared over Netflix headquarters in San Francisco and a powerful gust of magical wind blew open the doors. Before we knew it, seven wizards wielding wands and broomsticks descended upon the lobby and began making mischief. They caused the sprinklers to spray the office with confetti, the elevators to rocket up and down the shafts, and the fire alarms to scream out musical numbers at the top of their lungs. Unfortunately, they also caused our expenses to skyrocket, which forced us to make this difficult layoff decision. I understand how difficult this will be for all of you, but please know that we are doing all that we can to try and make this transition easier for everyone. We will be providing financial support and counseling for those affected by the layoffs. I want to thank everyone for their dedication and hard work. I'm sorry for the circumstances, but I believe that we can still come out of this a stronger and more unified team than ever before. Sincerely, Reedular Hastingons, Netflix CEO
