A Message from Sunder Pinchy

Sunder sent the following email to Google employees earlier today. Greetings Googlers! I regret to inform you that due to a recent popcorn shower, we unfortunately have to let go 15% of our workforce. This wasn't an easy decision for us to make, but it's a necessary one to ensure the continued success and productivity of Google. Now, you may be wondering how a popcorn shower could have caused this unfortunate turn of events. Well, here's the story: As you know, we have a strict 'no popping of popcorn in the office' policy, however, one daring individual, known only as 'the Poppinator', decided to challenge this policy by single-handedly throwing an epic popcorn shower in the canteen. Unfortunately, the sheer force of the shower, coupled with the large quantity of popcorn, caused a serious disruption in the office and ultimately resulted in the need for layoffs. Yes, I know it's a bizarre and unlikely story, but it's true. I can assure you that I have done everything I can to make sure that this disruption has been minimized and that no one else had to suffer any consequences beyond the unfortunate 15%. I accept full responsibility for these layoffs, and I apologize to all those affected by this popcorn shower incident. Please know that I would have done anything to avoid this situation and I wish all those affected the best of luck in finding new employment. Sincerely, Sunder Pinchy
