Love the "thoughts and prayers" comment underneath.

I, too, was wondering why they (the employees) would give a fuck.

Everyone offering condolences on that page is either a bootlicker or someone wearing the boots. Hope for their sake that the vigilante isn't browsing social media posts like that to narrow down his next target. It would be such a shame to see all these poor embattled execs have to live in fear.

If the CEO of my company were to disappear today we'd all be better off.

The CEO of the company I work for crashed the company so badly he had to get bailed out by the government. So I'd say we would be demonstrably better off if he were to disappear.

They're probably under orders to post that shit, or hoping it'll grease their wheels.

Lol and on LinkedIn too, not much virtual anonimity there. Hope his company thinks about it similarly, otherwise he might be in for a rough time.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 weeks ago

The fucking balls on this person to post this publicly on LinkedIn is wild. Mad respect.

Or maybe it's a troll account.

But where's the big red circle to show me where to look?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Sooooo much better. All OP is missing is “Nobody:”

What's an oilfield completions consultant? Is Jobe giving handies behind the mud tanks?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

But then we miss the lady simping for fucking United Healthcare.

I only read deep fried content

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you. I do wedding photos and birthdays too.

I get irrationally angry when people, like the second comment, CAPITALIZE random words FOR no reason. I just can't.. why are YOU shouting RANDOMLY

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

It's so you can see precisely who's boot she's licking

Its fascinating to see the post under it, there's some class collaborationism at work. I always find it interesting when people from the upper classes or ruling class take on like worker affectations, like cowboy hats or trucks; and when people from a working class or educated middle class, who is exploited but still sees collaboration with the ruling class as a means to their own success, because believe me "Real Estate Negotiation Expert" is an aspirational job title, kiss ass or signal that they can be relied on to step on and over their peers.

The aspirational middle manager who jumps in the comments for a CEO getting Adventuretime'd offering "deepest condolences", as well as offering the same sympathy to a victim of their own class in the event of a tragedy, is the rarest butterfly of all.

"I'm deeply saddened"

Oh STFU.

Call 'em 'trickmen' now.

Some people say goddamn cringy stuff.

This random real estate agent never even met this person, It's so pathetic how they felt the need to post about their "sympathies".

As for "sympathies with his colleagues", if CEO of the company I work for was murdered I would be absolutely fine with it. I don't know the guy, what do I care?
