[_] I'm scared, /f/ Anonymous 03/07/19(Thu)18:15:34 No.3383560
Am student. Money is tight due to my lack of study completion, but a friend who has a private
company offered a job. I landed it (he had several candidates), but now I'm unsure of all of
this. I don't hold him in the highest of regards. He's showcased the kind of behavior that'd get
him into trouble with people, but instead of going through the trouble he just moves on. Just..
never solves his problems. Forces his vision or blames other people for not letting him do that.
I'm kinda scared about the situation. The way I see it (it's his company) is that I'm in the
optimal position to get abused by a person that clearly sees people as a resource. I don't get
sufficient information about what I'm signing up for. We're both beginners or amateurs on this. I
kind of get how and why he's rushing over situations where he has to face his mistakes, but I'm
not willing to subject myself to a position where I can get shit for no reason.
I still haven't signed the contract (he told me to write it myself), so I still have the choice
to refrain from the commitment. But I really need money, it's not like I can go full innawoods
survival mode in a city.

Read 'Deep Adaption: A Map For Navigating Climate Tragedy', and then reevaluate your stupid
fucking problems. You've got 10 years of chill left, your bullshit doesn't matter.

take the opportunity, hope for the best and take every day at a time. Just dont allow anyone to
treat you below the threshold you feel comfortable with. Good luck OP. I believe in you.

If you're concerned about hi taking advantage of you, just remember that you can take advantage
of him. You can show up for probably the first 90 days and not pay attention/give a shit about
anything and fuck things up on purpose before he let's you go. That's a dick move, just like he
would do, right?
So in between, you have a relationship where you can mutually benefit from each other. If you
don't act like a predatory dick and violate your personal values, and stick up for yourself
when/if he does so in kind, you've struck the balance. Find what is comfortable for you in
between and you'll be okay. If that stops being comfortable, you're a critter with free will, so
walk.
Best of luck dude. Being at the ground level of a company, much less one owned by a friend, is a
powerful position. Use it if you choose.

10 years isn't worth shit if you can't get any food on the table to last that long
