Laid Off from the 17th Workstation

I was laid off from my job this morning. I worked in a small clothing factory and was sitting at the 17th workstation from the entrance. My boss somehow knew I was working slower than normal (idk how). If you know anyone hiring, please let me know. 🙏

A tweet says the author was laid off from a small clothing factory because the boss noticed they were working slower than normal. The punchline is the absurdly specific detail that they sat at the 17th workstation from the entrance, implying the boss identified them by counting workstations; it is sent as a deadpan, bizarre job-loss joke.
