Transcript

Wow. Another salty email from the ops team. I'm definitely leaving this place soon. Oh yeah, my next batch of stocks vests in three months. The minute that vests, I'm out of here. More layoffs. This is getting ridiculous. We're all doing the job of three people. I guess I can just wait and see if I get laid off and get that severance. We got our budget cut again. Our budget was already almost nothing. I cannot work like this. I cannot. I'll just take a soft day off tomorrow. My midyear bonus is about to hit. My apple watch data said my heart rate is unhealthy for someone my age. I have to quit for my health. But with the money I have from this job, I can keep up my pilates membership. No. Unbelievable. They wanna promote me without giving me a raise. That is unhinged. No, do not accept. But I guess the better title would help me land a new role. Should I just do it? Ah, I knew it! We're being reorged again. This is our fifth time in like twelve months. We cannot get anything done. This is unsustainable. I'm updating my linkedin right now. I'm also like super tired today. Maybe I should just take a nap and update my resume and linkedin tomorrow.
