Disclaimer
Every event described here is true, or at least my own perspective of the truth, which—last time I checked—is still something to which I am entitled. To protect myself—I couldn’t care less about the perpetrators of these crimes against common human decency—I do not name any of the firms or people with whom I shared these experiences. If you recognize yourself or your firm or your firm’s policies in any of these descriptions, all I can say is, “shame on you.” Cease this boorish behavior and there won’t be any reason or fun to calling you out.
