Is this normal for an interview?

I interviewed for a tax staff accountant role entry level. I am graduating in one month so my skill set is beginner. The director of tax who interviewed me seemed chill super cool. I said I was comfortable with 1040’s but I’m willing to try new things and he said he’s not sure why the job is listed as hybrid as it’s going to be fully remote…great I wanted that anyways. Then he ends off with saying eventually computers will be doing 1040’s so I’m not sure if that’s bad or good. Then the next interviewer came in and she is a partner and she is mean. She would roll her eyes and scoff at what I said and it tripped me up quite a bit. She also looked down on me for working at a liquor store during college. I guess I just want to know is her behavior…

Shameful and cowardly layoffs from United Furniture Industries

https://www.wxii12.com/article/triad-workers-answers-united-furniture-industries-lays-off-employees/42042051 This company lays off its entire workforce, late at night, the Monday before Thanksgiving, via a text message, telling them their employment is terminated immediately. They also claim that their employees' COBRA is not provided. This is hideous on so many levels. Right offhand: 1.) They lack the dignity and courage to tell these workers they are fired to their faces. Instead they choose to hide behind a text message. 2.) The text message itself is written in corporatese and legalese. 3.) This was sent out less than 72 hours prior to the Thanksgiving holiday 4.) There was absolutely no mention of severance, not even for a short time. Zero. 5.) There was absolutely no advance notice so employees could begin to figure out a way to make income elsewhere. 6.) This is through no fault of the employees'. Often these types of actions happen due to management incompetence…
