Apparently you don't know what you wrote because you're contradicting yourself. When pointed out that fact you just ignore.

Well, it's called defending your comments. Addressing what you previously wrote is obviously not the same as talking to yourself. But clearly you can't reconcile what you wrote earlier with what you have written later. They are, in fact, mutually contradictory. The only thing consistent between these 2 comments is that they both reveal a certain glee in the fate of Twitter employees.

Musk took over Twitter and they must have realised that there would be some changes and restructuring and that their jobs may have been at risk . They may have known there was the possibility of them being fired , so it wouldn't have been completely out the blue and completely unexpected , but saying that , there was also the possibility that they wouldn't have been fired . They went to work that day not knowing what the future holds and they didnt know whether they would be fired or not . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there's a difference between "probably" and a certainty .

Bkk Brian Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Twitter is planning to start charging $20 per month for verification / And if the employees building it don’t meet their deadline, they’ll be fired by Elon Musk. Twitter is currently planning to charge $19.99 for the new Twitter Blue subscription. Under the current plan, verified users would have 90 days to subscribe or lose their blue checkmark. Employees working on the project were told on Sunday that they need to meet a deadline of November 7th to launch the feature or they will be fired. Musk has been clear in the months leading up to his acquisition that he wanted to revamp how Twitter verifies accounts and handles bots. On Sunday, he tweeted: “The whole verification process is being revamped right now.” https://www.theverge.com/2022/10/30/23431931/twitter-paid-verification-elon-musk-blue-monthly-subscription Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst they were not certain they would be fired , they probably realised it would be a possibility "they probably realised it would be a possibility" is not the same thing as saying something is probable. In this your latest version, a possibility would be just one outcome among a range of others. Not the most likely outcome. Not at all the same thing as saying something is probable.
