Yes but we manage to stabilize the company every time

This was ironical you mo--ns. There is a lot of people around here who deserve to be let go because they are simply d-mb. This tells volumes about our hiring practices

Depending upon the current employee strength of Robust, same number will be let go in Feb 2025. Another LR in queue.

Which means that at the end of the next two quarters the company needs to be stabilized again and more people will be let go to compensate the expense for the new aquisition.
