When I read corporate emails and “official” messages, I always take the least charitable interpretation. So what’s the most unattractive thing that fits their definition of slowing down, that’s a hiring freeze.
This uncharitable view is the opposite when I encounter genuine human interaction where I try to view the most charitable.
But if a lawyer has read through it, then the most weaselly interpretation is probably truist.
I want the emotions to be with the people who make up corporations (and write the functions).
As for the people who make up the corporations, they turn into sociopaths themselves as their emotion and empathy dissipate the higher they get in the pecking order.
Also, sociopaths aren’t bad, they just extremely focus on goals. Psychopaths are bad sociopaths who harm others. If you have a sociopath surgeon or something that could actually be beneficial to society as they’d just perform tons of surgeries.
