India, July 10 -- Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has been appointed to a Federal Reserve task force about "Productivity and Jobs." The announcement came just a few days after she announced mass layoffs at the company, which impacted nearly 3,200 employees.

Social media reacts:

The news prompted social media users to share a range of remarks. An individual commented, "According to this logic, I should also be hired. I was laid off and I have experience with that sort of thing." Another posted, "We are not going to make it, are we?"

A third expressed, "This is a joke, right?" A fourth wrote, "Nothing about this makes sense."
