I already got me gaming laptop with the works, so sucks on the gaming MAGAts trying to see what that 5080 do

Ugh Oh Spaghettos

 

[the cac mamba]

Likely fake.

nothing has been remotely laid out in concrete for shyt like this to happen....the DAY after the election

Buying the rest of my computer parts this fall for that reason. None of that shyt is produced in the USA. I can feel the tangibles raining on my head.

I saw the proposed tarrifs on GPUs mentioned by Trump this morning.

Any brehs want to create a graphics card black market with me? We can sell 2080s for 3000 dollars.

Breh I was going to build this summer but good grief the parts I needed with the budget were a joke, plus I needed something portable. So settled for the TUF A16 Advantage

the company for thinking ahead and preparing for the future.

Probably fake because a company, willing to do that now, would inform employees conversation from management what possibilities to expect. When I worked for companies, there were meeting on the business and what it could mean during election cycles.


I hope it’s real though.

Sounds like BS from the company and if it is true they will still charge consumers more if the tariffs kick in

Supply Chain Management for a mfg company will make or break their business. A sudden spike in COGS would have them operating in the negative in the short term and shutting down in the long term.

If that’s even true, that company is dumb and/or getting over on their employees. Why purchase in bulk when you don’t even have concrete guidelines on how the tariffs will be imposed?

Sounds like the company is using this as an excuse to not give them the bonuses they probably didn't want to give them anyway more than anything. Tariffs on cheap Chinese/Indian shyt is not a bad thing at all, especially when business owners don't pay taxes on their earnings Ike that already.

 

[Absolut]

Definitely real

 

[nieman]

White men are already taking L's. we need any consolation we can get from this tragedy

This is BS. The company was already going to not pay out Christmas bonuses, they just found an easy excuse. It's already November. They either had it budgeted or they didn't.

Not an excuse, but I'm sure the CFO and FP&A team laid it out to the CEO on the likely possibilities.

Cutting bonuses to insure you have a better chance of fulfilling your future obligations in the event of these dumb ass tariffs is common sense.

So xmas bonuses earned in year 2024 of our lord is being held for 2025 problems that have yet to be implemented or even exist?

Sounds to me someone dont wan pay xmas bonuses n using the nations split to cover it up and now its propaganda. Owner is just a POS. My boss tried this in 2015 with my company.

This happens more often than you think and anyone who really blaming “tarrifs” that dont exist yet as a reason they holding money is LYING. Some of you dont quite understand the shyt employers pull on employees. Whos gon tell him you cant do that?

Get hustled brehs. Then blame the presidents non existant FUTURE policys in a Totally dofferent year. Keep fear mongering based on one example.
