From the previous post on his blog [1]: > Since I’m not rich, and I’ve never achieved any significant financial success , I’m living hand to mouth with my family of six. Even then, I knew I couldn’t afford a six month job loss. Also, I didn’t want to hurt WMF. I didn’t want a scandal. So, I just signed. I decided that we’d make the best of things and I’d just get another job as quickly as possible and try to put this behind us. I asked for four months and they agreed immediately. It took me five months to find another job when I lost it before, so I thought I could pull it off. I was wrong. > It’s been almost three years now. By working at WMF, it feels as if I destroyed my career as a VP of Engineering anywhere. That's incredibly sad. It seems like he's burned too many bridges, despite a brilliant career and being highly qualified. Corporate undertone aside, his friend at Mozilla offered genuine help, and his response is public shaming. This doesn't look healthy. Maybe all he needs is a place where he can focus on engineering without any politics involved. Hoping someone will be able to step in to help.
