Even if the guy was really needed, you can't have someone like that on your team. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 20 points 1 month ago (1 child) Just another reminder, no one cares about you in the slave factory. Prioritize yourself over work and don't build up loyalty to a rich asshole. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fizzle@quokk.au 9 points 1 month ago (1 child) Thats not really the right lesson to learn here. Just have real, non-combative conversations with your colleagues and supervisors.

In the process of enforcing good boundaries at work, you shouldn’t be a jerk. Firm, no-nonsense, but polite.

Everything he did was absolutely wrong but you can only say that when you are a sane person (relatively I hope lol) with a level head. We barely know anything but assuming the worst, I am imagining one of those grindset young adult who worked all day with no entertainment, sacrificed his life for his work, got absolutely nothing in return, self worth completely shattered, possibly dealing with suicidal thoughts. I have seen people like that (our university especially had a significant suicide problem) and I can somewhat relate to it. You can't expect someone like that to make the right decision, best avoid it altogether. Men's mental health is often ignored, I am only trying to highlight that.
