January hasn't ended yet and we are at 60% of the total layoffs of last year.
Curious for a source on that

Take your pick of article. There are numerous to choose from, and most of them give a rough number and their sources.

I don’t have their numbers, but this isn’t the first place I’ve seen similar quoted. First one I found through some friends’ discussion was this, which puts us, at a quick glance, at around a third of last year’s total(still plenty bad).
That’s not a source. That’s a ‘go do your research with a search and figure out what sources to look at’.
I wanted to know what they read and to read it myself.
