Lol. I'm glad I didn't apply for a customer service position in the Austin office like Bootcha suggested several months ago. Then again, as a female, I probably wouldn't have been hired.

lol @ Bootcha and nah, you'd have been hired back then prolly, it's just that you'd get to experience the cat-claws of Sandi first-hand while not being able to just punch her lights out or tell her off.

No way he's a really nice guy . If a little overawed by the dev staff.

Well he doesn't seem to accept DMs and I couldn't think of any other way to contact him, so I figure there's a chance he'll see the e-mail chain that still hasn't been closed and its latest addition:

quote:

Patrick,

I was saddened to hear that you recently nearly lost your job due to this e-mail chain. I find it extremely disconcerting that someone as high performing as you could nearly lose employment for simply performing a task as instructed by your superior. That your boss is seemingly incapable of providing a straight answer, relies on someone else to do their job, and then threatens them for performing that job is unbelievable. Although we have not had many interactions together I feel comfortable saying that your professionalism, quality of work, and regards for your customers has been exemplary. You display an attitude and work ethic that those in charge are seemingly incapable of doing.

At this point I have little doubt that your company will ever come up with a suitable excuse for why I was banned. We all know it was because what I said off site, you just made the mistake of telling the truth within a company that has turned misdirection and falsehood into a business strategy. Any reasonable person would laugh at how the Head of Marketing, Director of Communications, and Community Manager have had to scramble and lie after you gave a paying customer an honest and direct response. Anyone familiar with the workings of Cloud Imperium Games would simply shrug it off as business as usual.

I'm glad to know that people like you can have a job in part because of the financial support of people like me. That it comes at the cost of being managed by some of the most toxic, unethical, incompetent, and outright dishonest people I have ever encountered is unfortunate. You deserve better than that, and so do the backers who made this all possible.

Sincerely,

[Beer]

Yup, he did. I assumed that he wouldn't accuse a customer of something like that without being told to, because exposing your company to getting sued really is a way to get fired and he doesn't come off as the type of person who would do that.
