lol you left out the best part, the text:

Hi everyone, I know I might be in the wrong, but I just want to share this. My point of view might not be the same as everyone else’s, and that’s okay.

So… I was fired today. I started this job about a month ago, so I was probably still in my probation period, which means they had every right to let me go. I just don’t think being fired through an email with no real explanation was the right way to handle it.

The email said I was on my phone while on the clock. Yes, that’s true but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t doing my job. I used my phone to take calls for the company, and when there were no calls or emails coming in, I’d watch a video, a show, or play a game during downtime. I never ignored a call just to keep watching something or playing a game.

Another thing they said was that I was planning to leave again in two weeks. That part really upset me. During my short time there, I went through a domestic violence situation. I had to leave my home for a few days for safety while my husband and I tried to figure things out. We agreed to go to therapy and work on things, so I came back and reached out about returning to work.

While I was gone, I stayed in touch with one of my coworkers and told her what was going on. Since she sits right in front of me, she would ask how things were, and I was honest with her. I told her that if things got bad again, I might have to leave, but I never said I was leaving right away. I just meant that if things didn’t get better, I might have to leave my marriage and move back in with my mom. When I came back, I fully planned on working on my marriage and keeping my job. I want things to work in my marriage but I also know I can’t stay in it if it keeps getting worse.

The whole “white privilege” thing was also taken out of context. Before work a coworker was talking about a past job where she was the only white person and felt like nobody liked her. She said she would go home crying because no one talked to her, and how she disliked the “colored girls”

I told her I had been in a situation like that before too, but for different reasons. I explained that, in other jobs I’ve had, I had worked with a lot of white men and some white men in power don’t always realize their privilege. Like when you tell them you’re struggling and they say it’s just a mindset thing, when sometimes it’s more than that.

I brought up studies where identical job applications are sent out, but the ones with African-American sounding names get fewer callbacks than the ones with white-sounding names, even when they’re just as qualified or more. I was just trying to explain that it’s not always about mindset, sometimes it’s about real barriers.

She responded by saying she didn’t understand how immigrants get benefits like housing or food stamps. I tried explaining that a lot of times it’s not the immigrants themselves, but their kids who are born here and are U.S. citizens. I also said that what we see locally can be different depending on where we live. In some places it might seem like certain groups rely more on assistance, but overall that’s not always the case, and I kind of just left it at that.

I recently moved to this small town, so I guess living in a small, more conservative county is different from coming from a bigger, more diverse city. I have a bachelor’s degree and I’m working toward my master’s in social work, so I tend to look at things from that perspective. This position was not in the field I studied because there is so few opportunities around here.

So yeah… I know I might’ve been wrong in some ways. I’m just really bummed. I was hoping to keep this job for a while, especially as a backup plan in case things didn’t work out with my husband. I wanted to save money and have something to fall back on.

And yeah, I know it’s kind of ironic that I study social work and I’m in such a messy situation myself. I guess I could have kept my mouth shut and avoided all this.

Thank you for reading.

Moves to a small, conservative town, gets a new job and within the first 30 days she takes several days off, can't put her smartphone down and plays on it whenever possible, told a coworker she is likely going to need to quit and move away, and of course, got into a debate over white male privilege and why it's a good thing to give minorities free benefits.

They're saying "what does this have to do with Providence?"
Well what does George Floyd OD'ing in Minneapolis have to do with Newark, New Jersey or New York city?

Apparently the building the mural was painted on a gay bar and the owner actually apologized saying

"We heard you PVD. We are deeply and sincerely sorry for everything that has taken place over the past week. After reflecting and learning, we have made the decision to discontinue this project and will move forward with removal as soon as possible. We remain committed to fostering unity, safety, and care for all members of our community, and we will continue to listen, learn, and act with those values at the forefront."

What the fuck? I don't care about the accounts at this point, I just want to know what the hell were they letting that kid get up to on the internet. Normal 14 year olds aren't jacking off and letting it get recorded on tablets. What the fuck are the kid's parents DOING?

And nobody in the reddit comments are able to question their parenting on this front? It never ceases to amaze me how every single depraved post on this site somehow outdoes the one before it.

edit: I can't fucking spell

Edit: I'll be heading out. I'm finishing my coursework today/tomorrow before buying a tent off amazon with a credit card. Won't be paying that off, for obvious reasons. Turning my phone number off tomorrow. Thank you, guys. I'm heading off to a lifetime of despair, loneliness and destitution.

Okay he’s right that the tech sector is abysmal at the moment, but this attitude is utterly pathetic. A lot of people don’t get a job in their field right out of college these days. It happens. That’s why you gotta work where you can, and build up your personal work portfolio in the meantime.

Sounds like the sort of thing a normal dumb teenage boy would do to me. The weird thing is he did it with an AI thing rather than a girlfriend or an "internet girlfriend". Why did he decide to jerk off to a fucking robot spying on him?
 
I came across some janny that mass-edited all their previous posts to seethe about being fired from their no-pay job working for reddit, a billion dollar company:
