People now a day just feel entitled.

They have a good CEO who would tell them. Some companied just disabled your login or have HR calls you.

Slave to the grind is a metaphorical phrase that you are too busy working to do much else in life. This can be whether due to long hours or a commute that is rather far. I am saying that a number of us that are gladly do it and think it is stupid to question such when firings like this happen.

After this stunt, likely. That said it sounded like it was agreement for a new liquidity agreement. Not that I like it or am for it, those are common as a way to have extra capital from a lender. I saw it on TYT when they covered the story. Say what you want about their reporting, but they got this one pretty dead on.
