In an email obtained by Motherboard, Google tells YouTube Music workers it will "not be participating in collective bargaining."

    I was basing my question on the plan how Google uses contract work. Well it’s fucking hard to just throw that staff away if it’s not easy or what? Try to fucking give two seconds of thought before being an asshole fucking shit head.

    My question was about them not being easily replaceable, like that other comment seemed to describe.

    Have a shit fucking life.

        Sorry about coming off as rude but all I wanted was an answer why they’d be easily replaceable because that’s the only way Google can willynilly just fire the entire staff. Otherwise the premise doesn’t make sense.

        But you’re probably six feet deep on a five foot pole so apologies probably won’t do too much for your.

          You really need a ukelele for your apologies.

            What can I say, it kinda pisses me off that they set me up and can’t even answer the question.

            Good news is that since I’m easily replaceable the next guy can worry about the perfect apology.
