What the actual fuck
I mean, in hindsight, I don't know why I assumed differently. If it looks like a bro club...
Makes you wonder about Maxine leaving now.
No it doesn't. She moved far up North to be with her boyfriend. Can you stop trying to make shit up?
Wondering why previous employees left after the workplace is revealed to be a toxic, abusive shithole is not making things up.
But it is speculation.
Which, as you may note by your own word choice, isnt "making things up"
Its speculation based on new information.
Yes speculation. Reasoning based on inconclusive evidence; conjecture or supposition.
Thats the same reason I gave a really crappy company for leaving too. Not saying it's the exact same situation, but just wanted to point out that people sometimes lie to protect their place in their profession.
Especially if you're "enemy" has a fanatic fanbase. You come up with a reason that doesn't set the fanboys on a rampage against you. I think this is a fair thing to wonder.
Exactly, especially in the SM space where you'd likely want to get LMG to help you get off the ground, or at least a channel friendly with LMG.
Get out of here if you're just going to keep defending a $100 million corporation like it's your job
Defending? She literally said that..
And as others have pointed out... what she said falls perfectly in line with what someone afraid of recriminations would say, when trying to quietly exit a toxic workplace.
Seriously... are you Linus? I am failing to see why you have so much skin in this.
I'd like to think that it's generally safe to assume that a company doesn't conduct itself in this manner, but employers will always be incentivized to exploit it's workers so we must be ever vigilant.
