You might not have to quit. You may be able to ask for a leave of absence or an extended vacation or something less drastic than quitting. You mentioned in another comment that you are living in a country where language is challenge, that

You are not useless or weak. You are also more than a collection of job tasks. Working remotely can be very isolating and that isolation can take a toll on your mind and well-being. Self-care isn't something you can skip without conse

You can always ask for more, the worst thing that can happen is that they say "No". I would suggest you put together a list of successful projects and tasks you have worked on and present that to your manager with an ask for a rai

Probably not. The biggest hurdle here is that it was Levandowski who took the documents on his own initiative. Even if he'd been asked by someone high up at Uber to steal the information he might escape criminal prosecution but he&#x

In the USA legal system, this would be (at best) witness tampering and possibly obstruction of justice. Federal witness tampering and obstruction are things that _very_ few lawyers would knowingly participate in because you don't hav
