This is one of the few industries that consistently and continuously posts record profits while also firing everyone who put in the work to make the success possible.

The solution is not for you to show contempt or lack of empathy to these people, it's for them and you to demand better treatment from the owners and executives.

The system is fucked and it is skewed wildly against anyone who is not at the top.
