Summary

At 18, after breaking a two-year World of Warcraft addiction, he obtained a £4.70/hour kitchen- porter job through the job centre. For roughly eighteen months, he washed dishes, prepared food, cleaned hotel rooms, and witnessed abusive owners and awkward sexual encounters. After a Scottish manager repeatedly berated him and reassigned his kitchen duties, he quit for his father’s office job.

Insight

He functions best independently, while silence and social anxiety leave him vulnerable to criticism and hostile workplaces.
