Anyone hear from them? its the person from BlackRock. its gnawing at me. i have tried sending DMs. No replies. anyone from BlackRock know them or can give us any update? i really hope they reached out to one of u. 😔
Post is gone😭 definitely don't want another FB incident
Yea. Post was deleted.
Whats with FB incident?
And our famous Atinlay2 commented first on that post saying “Dig a deep hole.” Sometimes I wonder why we even entertain Atinlay2. The BlackRock person did mention that he was laid off and he was looking for a job. I hope that person is fine.
Omg and he says he is honest and upfront. Hate that guy.
That person seemed genuine, he wanted to write a check to his family, close his social media etc. He really wanted to leave this world without causing anyone trouble. We need people like him, I wish he is ok
I hope he knows how much he will hurt those around him if he were to leave the world in this manner. 😰 Not to mention strangers as well.
We made this world shit for him. I understand the way he feels and hope he's free from suffering, even if it causes some bad days for others
Shit, people really need help out there. Take care of each other y’all.
This is the most feel good thread on blind right now (even though I know it's a very unfortunate issue). I see there are humans still left in the world who are trying to help and taking an extra step like emailing blind..really hats off to you..I know we have freedom of speech etc but some losers make life really hell. On Amazon thread last week, one woman who has been there for 10 years posted about burn out , depression and suicide..and one person commented, "stop writing about dying and gaining sympathy, kill yourself already". It made my blood boil like how fucked up do you have to be to say that..there are some really toxic people here and I'm glad so many Samaritans gathered here.. Thanks!
Freedom of speech is meant to express difference of opinion. Not meant to impart shitty advice and to tell people what to do with themselves. Tho this thread gives me no good feelings right now. I am glad tho for people trying to help. The thread that did give me v good feeling was the outpouring of sympathy and offer for support that came after Uber lay-off, also the majority of good comments on black rocks original thread.
Thanks. I informed blind, and the co-founder said he is looking into the case personally but can't reveal the details to protect identity of the user. I really don't know if they are really doing something or just putting the issue to the side
Should someone call blackrock and let them know (at least) one of their employees is in need of help?
That might be a good idea. Dunno what they will be able to do tho.
That guy left BlackRock. He was laid off at BlackRock. He was looking for new job and he is on visa. BlackRock however may have his emergency contact. But we need to know the name of the guy to even call BlackRock. Since we do not, we would have to tell them the story about blind post and ask them if Blind has contacted them.
Anyone else remember from that post that one user named “koala” had mentioned that they were in touch with black rock guy via dm a few days earlier? Anyone know which koala it was?
Do you seriously think a person if at all that depressed use a stupid anonymous app that's frequented by shallow minded techies?
Yes. A person with no one to turn to or no one to talk to will seek out human connection wherever they can out of desperation
And if you think a person would not do that, then you are mistaken. Plus we talked to him and he was laid off on visa and was having trouble finding a job. So don’t treat something lightly when you do not know what the other person is going through. Let’s try to help the guy.
