So happy to have you back, Jared! That op-ed was insane, really shows how some people don't understand the typical American life.

the lunch illustration brings back sterile memories of when I was working in design for Macy's in NYC.

Thankful those dayZ are over.

Love your writing, keep at it please.

Oof. When people get pushed out of a toxic org, it can be a blessing in a painful disguise. I hope that your friend finds a much better place. I was in a similar at a financial services company: 4 managers in 1 year with the distinctly different jobs. It was the worst!

Sorry to hear you had to deal with the same bs! It really is a blessing and makes you appreciate workplaces that are even marginally less insane.
