Update to our valued employees

Jeff sent the following email to Amazon Kindle employees earlier today. Greetings Kindleers! It pains us to inform you that due to the unimaginable wrath of God, we are forced to reduce our workforce by 10%. As the head of this company, I take full accountability for this course of action. As you know, Amazon has always strived to remain at the forefront of innovation and technology, and recently, we had some ambitious projects to launch a world-wide network of satellites allowing us to deliver books directly to readers in a matter of minutes. Unfortunately, our ambitions proved to be too great, and God smote us for such hubris. We understand that many of you may have to take on new job roles or leave the company entirely, and we appreciate your patience and hard work. We know that many of you have families that you have to support, and we thank you for your commitment and dedication to Amazon Kindle. Thank you all for your understanding, Jeff 'Big Frog' Bezos
