After billionaire Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter, employees of the social media giant were under a cloud of uncertainty about their future at the company. However, the company announced employee layoffs are expected to get underway on Friday and about half of Twitter's 7,500 workers appeared set to lose their jobs, according to a report.
Some employees have already started receiving mails about their dismissal and have been posting about the same on the microblogging platform. While many are angry and heartbroken about the move, one employee who got laid off took to the platform to share the news in a cheerful manner. He said "Just got laid off. Bird App, it was an absolute honour, the greatest privilege ever to be a part of this team, this culture #LoveWhereYouWorked #LoveTwitter"
The 25-year-old was not heartbroken about him being fired but in turn appreciated his time spent at the company. He also shared a picture of himself holding two cushions having Twitter's logo. It appears that the picture was taken at the Twitter office. As per his bio, Yash Agarwal worked in the Public Policy team of the social media platform.
The tweet was posted a few hours ago and has received over 3,300 likes and several comments. Many users appreciated his positive outlook towards life and wished Mr Agarwal luck for his next adventure.
