What? He could have said 3 if he wanted, but he wanted it to sound worse so he said 75. I know its inferrable how many people it is, but if the guy laying them off doesn't care to say the number, why should someone else when posting this?
Both of those numbers in isolation dont tell the whole story. Saying firing 3 people sounds like a wednesday at a big company. Saying firing 75% of the staff indicates the impact that those changes will have on everything about the company. The latter is more useful.
