I which case I would apologize, say it won't happen again, thank them for making the changes they said they would so it doesn't happen to someone else, and say I look forward to joining again in the next batch. > especially recognizing the guy quit his job in a pandemic to do this thing, and was kicked out for missing an intro meeting. Exactly, that's why I would post anything that could remotely be considered a criticism.

>I which case I would apologize, say it won't happen again, thank them for making the changes they said they would so it doesn't happen to someone else, and say I look forward to joining again in the next batch. This sounds like a message you would say directly, not a public blog post. It sounds like Erik was kicked out before he could further communicate directly. >Exactly, that's why I would post anything that could remotely be considered a criticism. I don't think the he views RC as much of a career aid, more of something fun to help him improve as a programmer. Thus I don't think he sees it as important to attend in order to get a future job.

> I look forward to joining again in the next batch. I don't know how your personal money situation is, but if I'd quit my job expecting to take a 2 month break and then suddenly being told "actually it's 4 months" now I'd be pretty angry. My budgets would be completely out of whack. Do I need to contract for 2 months? Find a very short job? What are the tax implications? How do I explain the suddenly much bigger gap on my resume?

  If it's that big a deal maybe more work should've been done to make sure they knew what they had to do.

Being removed from a 6-week program that requires participants to quit their job for missing a 90min meeting that occurred at 7am is insanely hostile and unfriendly. They showed their colors and they aren't helpful friendly people that encourage learning.
