Collaborating with the CA team and paying off... well these days we know long term that's not the case. But regarding driving off yet another social group, it's almost like the same pattern with everything else. I actually wonder about that IT job or whatever it was that his dad got for him before he got fired after a couple of months. He can't handle groups of people without driving them off, having to do it for 40 or more hours a week? He probably managed to piss off the entire department he was in without realizing it. In any other environment (like a game night or two every week) he probably could have stretched that out to a year before getting the boot from a group.
And don't forget he even got fired as a freelance writer for that knights of the dinner table thing because enough readers complained about him even after they added the joke "cut here to remove this from your issue if you don't like it" bit on the edge.
If that was the case I would say that it means he can hold normal job. Or that at least he could do it in the past.
