> how did the Guardian get Gavin as a source? Typically it's a friend or acquaintance of the writer, and that inspires the writer to pitch the story and they're incentivised to do so to get paid. > Finally how did he manage to stay employed when pretty much everywhere nowadays does some sort of standup where everyone sees you had a ticket that was supposed to take 2 hours and then you took a day, and then the next, and then the next. At some point fairly quickly it becomes obvious you real slow. Yup, that's a surefire recipe to get onto a PIP within a few months. But maybe he doesn't work in tech companies but at some large corp doing some silo function and the expected work is just low enough for this to fly under the radar.
