schestowitz[TR2]Had a good run, could’ve left on good terms but they had to drag me through an unnecessary LP rating, PIP and RA. Enjoyed most of my time there, valued the many years of experience and mutual investment but it was all soured by the last few months of corporate scale gas lighting. It’s really Shameful.Aug 10 03:28
