my boss said he doesn’t personally post here but some others might. and my boss thinks it’s cool that I’m a leftist, he’s one too, apparently, and that a bunch of our coworkers are leftists. some of them might post here?? it’s a finance firm – the last place I’d expect this. how the fuck do they have a positive opinion of this place??

YOU HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU POST HERE AND WHAT YOUR @ IS. THIS IS SO UNFAIR LEAVING ME ON THE HOOK LIKE THIS. DON’T MAKE ME POST PPB TO THE WORK SLACK AND SEE WHO LAUGHS.

(I use tree style tabs so they can read my tabs when I share my screen – I didn’t hide this place because who the fuck has heard of hexbear)

        I’m probably thinking of a completely irrelevant connection anyways (with the old admin who claimed worked in finance)

        they’re probably some dbzer0 dweeb or something

          I vaguely remember what you’re talking about. in this case the world isn’t quite that small and I still need to figure out their @s, unless that person jumped ships from Goldman to my firm.

              Half of hexbear on January 6th desperately needed to play the TrueAnon board game of January 6th to gain some perspective on the seriousness of the “insurrection”

                    It was abt an anonymous minor writing a letter saying one of the admins had been trying to groom her with omaha steaks & people split into “this maybe a prank there is zero followup” and “that guy’s annoying and i believe it”

        Leftists work at Goldman Sachs???

        I spent 3 years working for a large bank doing appsec. I’m not proud of it, but I was the lowest performer aside from the guy who literally didn’t show up at all, and I got a real nice severance package when they laid me off (other guy got laid off that day too). I highly recommend it. Don’t work too hard. That whole team got replaced with outsourced labor, for the most part, aside from a few AI weirdos who probably got jobs on another team there.
