I would just like to point out that OP didn&#x27;t put his name, and he didn&#x27;t mention the name of the CEO or the company. I think he acted very professionally, maybe until the point where he was fired (in a very unprofessional way). I think we all have a point where we stop acting unprofessionally if we are being treated badly.<p>The important thing is that he&#x27;s just venting, and trying to use his bad experience to his advantage. Let&#x27;s say you get a resume from a web developer with some factory experience, some design experience and an internship. If you check his references you might hear that he was fired and that he acted unprofessionally. Maybe that he had &quot;unrealistic salary expectations&quot;, or that &quot;his personal life got in the way of work&quot;. (Because the CEO clearly was an a<i></i>hole).<p>He had some bad luck, tried to do a good job and now he&#x27;s in a tough spot. I think that&#x27;s easy to sympathize with.
