"Waste," huh?

Can't wait for the quickly put together public clarification of that little slip up.

"NEC joined the parade of tech firms announcing sinking profits, downsized forecasts, and shinking workforces"

I don't know what "shinking" is, but it sounds terribly uncomfortable.

Since the NEC president would have been speaking in Japanese, not English, I expect this is just a mistranslation.
