Hey there, friend :)

I just wanted to mention to you directly that you are a human being and you have choices here.

First acknowledging that you do need to stay employed of course and I don’t blame you, as the worker, for helping Reddit during this moment. But there are these few moments each day at your work where you can make small, deliberate decisions on behalf of your fellow human beings over hollow corporate furtherance.

Just do a bit less each day. Forget to send an email here and there. Copy the wrong “Debbie” or “Todd” in that email that you do send - honest mistake. Forget to ban that mod you are asked to ban, or forget one in the group. If you’re feeling bold, get off of your work machine and reach out to those mods on a dummy account with a heads up.

Again, not you’re fault as an individual either inn a broken system, but you probably have small opportunities every day to help the world and hurt Reddit a bit. Embrace those opportunities.

We believe in you.

    As much as I dislike what’s going on - sabotaging ones work has next to 0 impact on the company scheme of things. All it does is, give you a bad exit once you leave - or if you keep it up long enough get fired.

    worst case ending up with a bad reputation in the long run, since sind companies do ask previous employers for feedback. sometimes without your “ok”.

    I would not recommend sabotaging your work an future

    Giving an interview to press, bloggers, podcasters and stating the facts and truth afterwards… or something in that line is likely more beneficial for everyone and yourself.

    I you decide it’s time to leave - regardless of reasons - try a clean exit for your own good. If you have been mistreated at work, seek legal advice.
