Did someone give a bully a bollocking? Tell higher ups how bad things were? Say something truly hilarious?

    Said go fuck yourself to CEO at a meeting with contractors, then said the same to the boss of the contractors, stormed out of the room, returned with a glass of cognac in five minutes and everyone pretended that nothing happened. It was so epic and hilarious and the funniest thing is both of the guys actually listened and fucked themselves did the right thing.

        Well contractor’s team was confused, our team was trying not to laugh to hard, and ceo was like “well, moving on …”. It was a startup that gotten too big fast, so people that were there from the start were friends before (and some of the smartest if shitty people that I’ve met), so things like that were not normal but tolerated.

        After meeting ended everyone was invited for a drink, so people had somethingn to say about it, it was to date one of the few meetings I’ve ever enjoyed.
