He was a former coworker but is working for the govt when stress got to him. Unfortunately he reached out and we didnt really know just how badly he was asking us for help.

[04:15] schestowitz[TR3] In a just universe, every IBM-induced stress-related illness, aneurysm, heart attack, stroke, hypertension, depression, self-harm would get added to Alvind's karma. There are ways to go about making difficult decisions as a CEO, and he has chosen the most cruel, inhumane methods while personally profiting off of it and appearing to enjoy it immensely. Fracking sociopath.

His country respects the blue collar worker and forces Microsoft to keep him gainfully employed for 6 months following notice. So while he could just walk and get paid for 6 months he chose not to and stay busy while he figures out his next phase. And dont let it be lost on any [16:33] schestowitz[TR3] one that even after the 6 months hes going to step into a severance package that far exceeds anything a US worker would be offered.
