Synopsis: “Mark, how can I drink water like you do on CNBC?”
The Treasury is retiring the Penny, how can we?
A few commonalities between the penny (1 cent) and Penny:
- The penny is 232 years old, Penny’s reign feels just as long.
- The first penny had a woman, free flowing hair, symbolizing liberty. This Penny symbolizes tyranny.
- A “penny for her thoughts” is worth the same.
- Her “two cents” isn’t worth much as it used to…inflationary talking points.
- The U.S. Mint’s fiscal year 2024 report said the one-cent coin cost 3.7 cents to produce, a 20% increase from the year before. Penny’s yearly pay increases mimics the same increase.
Remember “a penny saved is a penny earned” and a “Penny saved is a lesson learned”
Freudian Slip?
Did anyone catch a Freudian slip yesterday? I feel like there was a lot of stammering because of nerves to deliver bad news. But did anyone catch this?
This isn’t verbatim, but something was said along the lines of - we have to make tough calls.. why? For the greater good of the KING — and then instantly corrected to TEAM.
Another Big Bank falls
Just saw Truist is calling back all employees to 5 days a week. It’s getting harder and harder to find flexible work options https://www.bankingdive.com/news/truist-rto-employees-in-office-5-days-banking/805291/
Pulse is laughable
Interesting how they skipped a mass Pulse announcement and just slipped it into the morning communication. Where is the video? We want to know you heard us!
What is the secret of Shank and Vivek?
Both of them are hated by people within their own org and people outside of their org.: Somehow these two continue to survive.. what’s their secret?

November Layoffs
For the person that said Layoffs are coming Nov 17 & 18, I can confirm that this is real. I was accidentally copied on an email that I shouldn’t have been. I don’t know how they can layoff anymore people from that team because they already have a skeleton crew and if we’re supposedly in the cloud, wouldn’t you need engineers to make sure the customers products continue to work. It’s just in time before the All-Company Meeting. I’m sure SM will put on his sad face and pretend the layoffs break his heart. His song and dance is getting old. I pray for the best for those affected by the layoffs. May you find stable, healthy employment quickly.

People leader or individual contributor
When did Ford move to the People Leader / Individual contributor model? And how did they categorize existing employees at the time? Did anyone get a say in their label?

Tears and Upset - Someone handed me a notecard!
Pretty convenient that someone had a note card to trigger the prepared statement to have a Dad talk with the entire company. If you respond other than how we expect you to respond get ready to get in line! And tears!
Layoff 20 Nov
Managers are currently in meetings after being asked to rank their employees. Not a rumor.
So in theory
With the new Optum image on all Uhc emails and the active engagement of the Optum board, it’s clear that we’re aligning as one cohesive unit. It makes sense for us to follow the guidance of the Optum board moving forward? Just questions?
Is today the day to announce RTO?

This company knows how to go under the radar with these layoffs. That’s why it’s important to post here because it’s the only way to stay informed when the Warn act isn’t triggered
Enough with the fear mongering. Nothing is happening next week.
