Mike–the online vitriol is horrific. Every single person I know who has worked in this industry has done so because they see it as a way to help people at their most vulnerable moments. At my company, we receive thousands of member calls each month. Every single response to every single one of those calls from someone in need of help is an act of service. How awful for Brian’s friends, family, and colleagues to have to read such ignorant hate.
Just wow, well i hope brians parents are absolutely ashamed of themselves for raising a terrible human being as a son.
Brian deserved everything he got and much more. If there actually is a hell i hope hes there for eternity.
From my professional experience working with US companies, such attitudes are more of a cover. “It’s technically not legal, so my actions are just and fair irrespective of the real world impact.” There is a fair share of “true believer” types (not at the senior level though), but they are a lot rarer than the amount of public facing polemical copytext would suggest.
This is not a critique per se, more of an observation. I enjoy working with Americans, they are pretty laid back and can be relatively generous with comp if you know what you are doing (and you know how to sell yourself).
Feel free to ask him:

Sweet lord. The Insurance CEOs and their Toadies are scared lol.
Good.
I don’t go to that degenerate hellsite. It makes me feel extremely misanthropic and despondent.

I often wonder how genuine such polemics are.

Thanks. Just reported his post as ‘fraud or scam’ lol. I know nothing will happen but it made me laugh.
Misinformation is also a report category, for those seeking diversity in options…
Snap I didn’t see that one!
Looks like the post is gone now…
