ADEQUATE ASSESSMENT
The workers were removed. The returns were projected. The projection assumed the workers were the variable. Subsequent quarters suggest something else was the variable. The report is available. The executives who commissioned the layoffs are also available, at a different company now. Someone will be held accountable. This has been scheduled for Q4.
