What if frogs had wings so their ass didn't scrape the ground when they hop?

It blew up BECAUSE they are both executives and public figures at a pre-IPO company. It isn't hard to validate that they aren't married to eachother, considering they're both on their public "about us" page lol

The internet is going nuts because this is FAFO. Degenerates love seeing some good FAFO play out

Maybe I'm out of the loop with how tech companies operate, but 8 C-level people seems like about 4-5 too many. And they don't even have a CFO listed, so that would be at least 9.

Do not ever fuck around at work.  It can only end badly.

This.  I have a gal who works for me that is pretty hot and even though she's married, I'd bet I could hit it.  But no way I consider that.  I honestly don't really understand having an emotional affair outside of the marriage.  I get wanting to fuck, but if you want romance with someone else, get a divorce.  Your marriage is over.

dude the entire internet is meme'ing this guy into the ground.  This isn't going to be some divorce case. yes we'll forget and move on in the next week or so but its still etched into our memories for eternity. 

 

If i brought this up to you 10 years from now "remember that affair caught at the Coldplay concert"..youd likely remember it...this guy has to deal with it probably every day from here on out especially if hes outted at his company and has to try landing on his feet somewhere. You dont think his new work environment is going to always think of him as the slimy affair guy at the colplay concert?

 

 

Someone earlier posted this guy has ruined multiple other startups.  You think something as stupid as an affair is going to hinder his future more than having a shitty track record of on the job performance?  Meh, I guess you think Boards of Directors are going to all of a sudden gain some ethics?

Yeah, I look at all these poly people and I'm like, I don't want another wife or a side piece, I just want to be left alone.

Some of you don't really grasp what's actually happening here. 

Dude, they went out in public and were acting intimate.  Whether it was caught on camera, or one of his wife's friends saw them, or whatever, they took the risk and it blew up in their faces.  The more out in the open you are with an affair, the higher the likelihood of getting caught.  No one to blame but themselves.

You are out of the loop.  It's a club.  "Oh, you're c-suite?  We have a board opening on our non-profit, it would be a good stepping stone.  Let's talk."  Some fraction become CEOs and they they're on the for-profit boards and everybody makes bank accordingly and lather, rinse, repeat.  A significant majority of the c-suiters are worthless.

Some of you would change your minds if it was you, it's funny, but wishing people you don't know ill is fucking weird. 

LOL this site is chock full of that premise and you haven't banned any of it.

 

Plus in this case, we aren't "wishing ill."  The folks did "ill."  You seem to think we are imparting consequences upon them.  That is false. Their spouses and employer will( should) do that.

They have raised $380M in funding as a niche software company. I wont pretend to know anything about the "apache airflow" ecosystem, but that seems like an absurd amount of money for a company with 300-400 people and their likely coding requirements. So they will find ways to spend it, and I can think of no more efficient way than to stuff your C-suite with worthless management.

It's a Sisyphean struggle, BV. Much like mine, with trying to get people to copy/paste plain text around these parts.

May be an image of 3 people and text that says 'Record scratch* Freeze frame* Yup, that's me. You're probably wondering how | ended up at a Coldplay concert...'

You give someone the Heimlich maneuver, and all hell breaks loose. No good deed goes unpunished.

So this is a CSB but I once worked for a software company that was later bought out. This one girl got the choicest territories for sales.
 

At the Christmas party, she was blowing the married VP of Sales in his car. He wrecked it in the parking garage. Lots of people witnessed this. I missed all the fireworks having left about 20 mins earlier.

 

The next fucking day everyone was gossiping about what had happened, eventually they called a meeting with just us sales folk and told us to refrain from gossiping about it. someone not so jokingly said because neither the VP or his blow job giver were in the meeting: hey I been wondering why I get shit territories to call on and that woman gets the best hours and the best territories. Dead silence and a lot of glares from management in the room. 
 

A few days later our company merged and many people in our department were let go including the guy that spoke up and the rest of us who were given the weakest territories in the company to call on.

 

But not the blowjobber though or the VP. And btw most of the people who knew about their affair and looked the other way kept their jobs, funny how that works. She and her buddies got the best territories and reaped all the benefits. I was new to the company, didn’t know shit about their affair, my dad had just died, good times and I got $5000 severance though. 
 

cool story Nicole. 
 

so yeah, my sympathy and empathy is not with the Dumbotran couple. Cuz I wonder how many people got literally screwed over at work while they been doing their affair thing. 
 

Off soapbox…

I don’t work in corporate America anymore, but your story is all too familiar with the small companies I worked for years ago. At one of them, it was pretty well known why the woman who became the CEO and eventually sat on the board shot to the top and  blew up her marriage along the way.

Having a sidepiece, affair, throuple, poly whatever, takes work.

Hiring a pro does not.  That's why you hire them.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

The lesson here? Nicole was unwilling to go the extra mile, and the Town Lake victims all probably look like the VP of sales at her old company.

Man.....that is a LOT of words for Nicole to be telling us that she really regrets not blowing the married VP of Sales herself.

There's funny and then there is going beyond and intentionally fucking up and putting peoples shit on blast. 

Going to a cold play concert shouldn't equal everyone you've ever known putting your shit on blast and being amplified beyond the funny part of it. 

What happened here isn't just the funny incident it's the everything after that has gone way further than that. It's not cool here and it would get you a ban stop acting like it would be cool here. 

This is some Grade A Weird-Ass White Knighting.

How do you not understand that this is a justifiable case of FAFO?

First, he’s a rich CEO in an increasingly exploitative capitalist system. Everyone enjoys seeing the privileged elite fall on their faces.

Second, she’s an HR executive. She should know better than to date her boss. Everyone loves exposing a hypocrite.

Third, they’re cheating on at least one spouse. In full public view. That’s on them. Nobody forced him to grope his mistress in public.

Especially this part.  As a management exec, we HAVE to take sexual harassment training online EVERY year.  HR coordinates it.  She knows this is way out of bounds, and she wouldn't have thought twice about firing someone else in an inappropriate office romance.
