  • The big incident at my previous job was the (extremely incompetent) HR person accidentally sharing a spreadsheet of every employee’s salary. I was an hourly worker at the time and thought it was funny, but some of the senior engineers were pissed to find out how much more other engineers made. HR was not fired, instead she was put on a temporary paid leave.

    Other incidents include:

    • One of the owners’ vape exploded, forcing everyone to evacuate.
    • VP of the company got caught buying escort services on the company credit card.
    • Aforementioned owner (who was no longer an owner after the company was bought out) got fired shortly after a town hall zoom meeting, where he used a Trump/Pence background.
    • The head of the NOC team had a stroke at work.
    • COO “accidentally” revealed in front of everyone that one of the Project Managers had cancer. She sued, and they settled.
    • COO verbally abused one of the senior managers over the phone during a big meeting. He sued, and they settled.

    It was a pretty shitty company.

    A few months ago I FINALLY organized my cluttered box of miscellaneous technology and cables into one of those plastic bin drawers with wheels. I now know what I have and can keep it all fairly organized. Found some stuff I could’ve thrown out, but this post just told me not to. So thanks!
