55:15 - 57:43 s/icidal ideation

This was filmed with a LOT of breaks in between so apologies for all the light changes. And I realize the first story/example I gave is in fact pretty petty BUT give me a break, that was the last funny/harmless petty moment we had before it all got toxic and dark lol

8:52 Nutty intern and the beginning of "us vs them"
11:59 A passive-aggressive manager
15:05 Taking advantage and the excuse of "we're a start-up"
16:50 Starting our summer internship
21:29 Their mistakes are your mistakes
23:09 The housing and holiday debacle
27:07 Internship teams and bad cop
32:00 Depression and the sleeping situation
36:38 Montreal and angry Chad lol
41:28 Anger issues and not admitting mistakes
45:11 Assault and the aftermath
54:10 Seeking help
57:58 Back in Korea
59:37 Bad consulting lol
1:00:54 Sickness and my Korean coworkers
1:02:17 The quitting fiasco

There was so much more that happened in this 2.5 year period, but I think the things I mention are the easiest to explain tbh. Sorry that this is an hour, but I wanted to just talk it out and get this video off my mind. I was thinking of deleting some parts, but I am already leaving so much out - I wanted to keep all these examples in here as things to look out for.

One thing I left out was my housemate (stacey) who made my living situation in Korea feel genuinely dangerous to my health, especially after surgery (recovering from surgery in a house filled with mold made by your roommate isn't something I'd wish on anyone) so I also want to stress that if you CAN find a way to get yourself to safer living conditions, do it. I could have moved out but felt like I shouldn't have to leave my home because of this new person, but looking back I should have just gotten tf out of there. Hindsight is 20/20 but put yourself first. The effects of not feeling safe in your home for 2+ years because of the people you're living with took a lot of time to undo emotionally.

I also failed to mention that one of the saddest things to come out of Chad's management style is that we all started to behave like he did with each other. As coworkers, we all showed some of Chad's qualities because we were in a toxic environment and followed our leader's example (holding people to unhealthy expectations, chastising people for tiny things, etc) Unlearning that was hard.

I know that especially for people working abroad, being in a situation where your life is tied to your visa is terrifying and you often make decisions based on your visa and not your wellbeing. I hope that you always feel you have options, I hope you never feel trapped. Sending lots of love to you all as always and thanks for letting me get this out. Honestly, writing out this video and editing it was really cathartic?
