Heads up, the headline is kind of misleading. “Going sleeper” is just their internal slang for getting laid off. It doesn’t mean some kind of protest or activism.
The headline is stupid ... It basically says Geek Squad is laid off after getting laid off
Journalism is basically beyond saving at this point...
I mean, it's basically a no name website. It's not like this is a NYTimes, AP, or The Atlantic headline.
Edit: I guess what I'm really asking is, it's a bad headline from a small publisher (it's surely happened many many times for decades), can't we leave it at that without the dramatization?
Overreacting and dramatization is what social media trained us to do, so I’ll go ahead and answer that question with… no, probably not. Or as social media taught me; I SLAM your comment DOWN!
I clap back at your slamming of the previous poster's comment.
