My favorite is the contrast between the bank job story where he tried to get 2 coworkers fired for dating which I assume was against company policy and his retail job where he got shitcanned after misusing the employee discount he had. Just goes to show that if you're a good worker who's doing numbers, the company you work for will overlook minor breaches of company policy, I'm sure the manager he tried to get in trouble was making a lot of money for the bank which was the reason upper management told the gout-ridden fuck to piss off. And that's just me assuming that coworkers dating was against company policy at that bank, if it wasn't then it's just an absolutely pathetic move on his part.
Similarly, if Phil was making bank at the retail job he worked at, they'd overlook him misusing employee discount to buy 3 Playstations for a tournament or whatever, the loss they'd have from that would've been covered by the profits he'd be raking in. But he wasn't, he wasn't even an average employee, he was a shitty one and when he breached company policy they got a way to get rid of him without any fuss.
Phil has always seethed about the fact that people who are high achievers are allowed to get away with more shit than those who are average or those who are absolute shit achievers like Phil, he always bitches about how he gets treated unfairly and scrutinized about the tiniest of things but other people don't. Like when he seethed about high-level Japanese fighting game players recently and about how they had their travel and lodging expenses paid for while poor little Phillip had to fuck up his credit so he could travel and lose at tournaments. Then there was the rant where he said that he wouldn't tolerate top-level players being late for a tournament if he ran them.
