> My old manager put it best: No politics and religion in the workplace.

No politics for you. The corporate strategy, governance, hiring, dealmaking, etc... will all be politically informed. All your work will contribute to the political beliefs of leadership. It's such a strange abstraction to believe that you're somehow separate from that.

When I have my client's money rattling around in my bank account, I find other avenues to express my annoyance with them. Mainly complaining to my wife :) If the annoyance becomes unbearable, I quietly find some new position to work at.

It's ingratitude at some level. If workers should not be grateful to their employers for their jobs, that's a different conversation, but yeah, sabotaging an external PR event -- what employer is going to giggle, clap, and congratulate this person's "bravery" ?? termination had to be expected here.

Amusingly, the employee now gets 6+ months of unemployment benefits to contemplate the means of their activism.
