I used to work for a non-profit which was nominally focused on helping adults, mostly immigrants, with illiteracy in English.
It took all of a couple of weeks for me to realize that the place only existed as a grift for the owner. Barely provided any benefit to anybody other than his salary to him. He also exclusively hired women in their twenties. Guess he thought they were easier to take advantage of, but he had a funny awakening when the last two of us quit on the same day.
Turns out all he knew how to do on his own was to give speeches and throw other people under the bus. He also tried to withhold my pay and blackmail me into continuing to work for him after I quit and only stopped when I said I was going to go to the labor board.
On a related note, fuck you Greg and I hope you get eaten by a swarm of fire ants.
Go to hell Greg!
Fuck Greg!
