Receiving error in console

Hey, I'm receiving 5 net:: ERR_Failed notifications when I load my code in the console. I am using Chrome. Help would be appreciated. My code is below. Thanks.

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
  if(xhr.readyState === 4) {
      console.log(xhr.responseText)
  }
};
xhr.open('GET', 'data/employees.json');
xhr.send();

Looks like a missing semicolon after the console.log(xhr.responseText) line.
