> The last time I worked for someone else was 1992

Sometimes it’s fine to see a topic and tell yourself “I have no relevant knowledge in this area so I won’t comment”.


1992 is actually insane, this is before common commercial email.


Good for you, just try to remember those old days when you complained about bosses and "whine" about things to your friends and some work colleges about day to day stuff. Now think what you would say about a situation when you were fed up and had to quit because you couldn't take it anymore and every day you had these tasks going against your values ( doesn't matter if they are "right" or "wrong", they are yours ).

Also, Google is a multi-billion dreadnought with hundreds of millions of dollars for PR, lawyers and lobbying every year. I'm sure they can take a post about someone "whining" and quitting their job in disagreement. Something tells me Google be fine...


This was a post shared with colleagues. Apparently, reaching out to colleagues and friends is verboten now?

You are getting emotional. Maybe try calming down?


>but no one gains anything from it

venting can be helpful mentally/emotionally.

readers can feel solidarity, comfort in a shared experience, etc.


everyone _works for someone else_, it's entirely about what the structure of that relationship is.

You don't make your own food do you? Build your own car? Make your own git repos?

Seems like you might want to have a better view about who you work for.


Your comment has nothing to do with what I wrote.


I stop reading internet comments when a baseless statement is used as the base of a comment. Appologies.
