CEO calls the Android team in for a congratulatory speech. Likens us to tower builders in the age of cellular tech, building the infrastructure of something great. Then finishes his talk with “and when they were finished, they fired all the tower builders”

I think he was trying to joke, but it sure as hell didn’t feel like it.

That's not a joke.

I would find a new job if I were you.

If it was a joke, ask him if he's still laughing when you turn in your resignation.

that is a pretty fucked up thing to say to you guys lol

@sariel it was many years ago now. We still used Skype to communicate in office and to this day I have not changed my status from “professional tower builder” - I refer to that job as my “nightmare job”

Everything I know about how to be a bad colleague I learned and specifically do not do from there. It was the best example of a collection of bad examples

@qbalsdon
You seem to be new here.
It's ok, I'll teach you.
Don't feed the trolls.

@dUcKtYpEd hahaha. I wanna work in your team
