    Why wouldn’t they just become a contractor instead? Makes no sense to put up that many red flags.

      Entitlement, narcissism, chose your poison. This person believes they deserve more and more and more and finds ways to justify their behavior.

      That said, I agree that corporations are bullshit so I get it. This person isn’t a hero, though.

        I’m all for job hopping, it just doesn’t make sense that after 2-3 times that a company would say, “sure, come work for six months” knowing the person will waste 1-2 months of that onboarding and getting up to speed with how things work at that company.

          I suspect that a lot of these get into companies during those gigantic hiring waves that result in massive layoffs a year later.
