I wish I worked in a big tech company instead of healthcare. I get more harm inflicted on me everyday than this guy experienced over the entire story. Your lives are pretty good.

Boohoo. What is the point of your comment, people are allowed to feel how they feel. Holding contempt for someone because they are expressing work difficulties is no reason to shame them.

I was mostly just pretty amazed. Maybe other tech workers don’t realize how good they have it.

Maybe you have just normalized mistreatment where you are.

The correct response is not to criticize people who demand respect, it is to act to get respect yourself.

Both can be true.

Lol

Same impression. I work in a tiny healthcare tech startup and work closely with practitioners who do the good work in hospitals. I get this person had a crappy work experience fixing bugs in code, but being pampered with two-week stress leaves while making serious money and having the option to pick up something else up at the drop of a hat, that doesn’t sound like a very big violin
