Fyre Fest 2. Yes it's a thing. They claim tickets sold out, but I don't believe it for a second.

In my old job, we were invited to an ultra-important Zoom call that was mandatory for everybody based in head office to attend. The meeting was scheduled at 9:30AM on a Monday morning, in the midst of our busiest week of the month when we had time-critical payment runs to get out for approval by 12PM. Hundreds were pulled from their work.

What was this ultra-important Zoom meeting about?

Our chief financial officer was announcing his resignation. I think everybody on that call would have rather gone back to their work than hear him brag about his plans to comfortably retire and "never work a day beyond 55" for twenty minutes. It was the most tone-deaf and patronizing announcement I've ever heard, especially in a workplace largely staffed by people who were struggling to even make ends meet.

Even my (then) line manager was like "Was that it?"
