    I’m an information security professional… the fact that one fire got Peter off the hook and destroyed this business is a perfect reason why they were doomed from the start. No disaster recovery plan, no business continuity plan, no data backups offsite, and no accounting metrics to keep track of Peter’s wrongdoings.
    Doomed to fail at the first issue like this.

    I took it, because I need the money, couldn't find another job, or maybe could, but I honestly didn't want to give the bullies the satisfaction, because I would need to downgrade a lot probably and they would take pleasure in that. It's my own fault to a degree I can't get a better job...but man, this current one and the insults and how frequent and overwhelming they became and how it destroys you mentally...
