Without too much detail, he came from a really bad home environment. Ran away from home at 16 and was 22 when I was helping him out.
The only thing that made any sense to me was some type of loyalty to the place he was working (commercial HVAC company) but it always seemed like this place treated him badly. He’d been there for almost 3 years though with the prospect of a raise dangled in front of him like a carrot and never materializing.
- buescher 5y agoIf his current employer was a mom and pop, he may have owed the owner money on screwball terms, from deductions from his paycheck (unless he left) to "you don't have to pay this back unless you leave".

- buescher 5y agoI knew someone like that, and I always suspected he owed his boss money. Turned down a job with better benefits with a large, much more secure company to take a counteroffer from the entrepreneur who was going broke. He also had this weird bond with the employer that mistreated him and kept dangling a raise (real soon now) in front of him.
