Today, I had to send in my RIF documents, which was a bittersweet moment for me. The HR representative who handled my exit was the same person who initially welcomed me to the company, which made it all the more emotional. I'm relieved to be leaving behind the toxic environment created by our GM. One of my most vivid memories of him was during a team meeting when he made a deeply offensive joke about paying for permits on Tribal Land. He said something along the lines of, 'We made them walk the Trail of Tears and now they’re making us pay cash for it.' This was particularly hurtful as one of my teammates is Native American, and it was just a thoughtless and cruel comment. It’s frustrating to think that the company allows such behavior to persist. I feel like I’ve dodged a bullet by leaving, and I’m ready to move on to better opportunities.
