I am Ukrainian, and I work at a super super tiny startup in the US. I’ve always loved my company specifically because of the management. But they’ve gone above and beyond and I’d like to share somewhere because I am overwhelmed with emotion.
This has been a terrible fucking time as a Ukrainian. I don’t think I need to expand on this.
My bosses have not only been insanely understanding and kind, but today, they let me donate a sizable sum to organizations of my choosing. They didn’t want it publicized or anything else. they pretty much just told me, an employee that’s turned pretty fucking useless this past week due to grief, to go pour money to help out where I think it will be best.
I feel safe in this workplace. I’m beyond grateful. There is hope. I pray for their success and hope I can contribute in some meager way because this brings me so much hope for both work reform and the future overall, in an incredibly dark time.
