Yikes, to say the least.

Obviously, this got heavily criticized right away.
Unemployment is not a joking matter, but Netflix seems to think it is.
The show, titled Prank Encounters will stream later this year.
It will have eight episodes.
"Each episode of this terrifying and hilarious prank show takes two complete strangers who each think they're starting their first day at a new job," Netflix's press release said.
"It's business as usual until their paths collide and these part-time jobs turn into full-time nightmares."
If you can't tell, this tweet is full of sarcasm.
Just for the record, I would not watch something about kicking puppies.
It's a tough world out there for people, especially in the job world.
But this irony is on a whole other level.
Some people are toning down how they speak to a child and are doing their best to educate him.
Do you think it's all in good fun? Or is this one step too far for Netflix?
