    "They had a meeting without me"
    That is proof that company was DESPERATE to fire him after hearing about his mom.
    They knew if they did a meeting with him, he would be allowed to voice his opinion or should I say FACTS about the matter, and get a better chance at staying, but the company CAN'T have that. They NEED to destroy this man's career. So they intentionally did it without him and basically just banned him from stating a truth that challenges the companies agendas or might or whatever kind of company they are.
    The point is, companies like that love to suck the energy out of employees and underpay them, no matter how good of a job they do. Even if they do better than the veteran workers, the managers will still rage at you for even daring to ask for a raise.
    And because there was temporarily no energy to suck, they fired him for simply doing what THEY would also do if they're families also got hurt or near death like that.
    That company has a special place in hell for them.

    This really hits home. I lost my mom from breast cancer (stage 4) little over 2 years ago. The pain is horrible for your loved ones and obviously for my mother during that time to put it lightly. It was going on for awhile (about 10 years) but her passing was pretty sudden. During her final months (unknown to me how close she was), I was just starting my graduate program and within the first few months my immediate family flew out (precovid times) to visit me. It was the most pain I’ve ever seen her in…. Just 2 months prior she was able to walk, more active/less tired and cheery but, that visit, she had walker and a wheel chair (switched between these often), fell asleep at random points in the middle of day, had difficulty to do basic things (e.g. showering), looked almost 10 years older, etc…. She passed away about a month later and my dad, brother and I still recall those moments; it’s not something you just forget. So yeah it’s a REALLY horrible disease and I was at least lucky my institution was supportive during my grad program.
    I can’t imagine the additional pain this person feels and it makes me sick. Echoing what was mentioned, but losing both your career (something you worked incredibly hard in to achieve and are passionate in doing) along with a loved one at the same time…… (speechless). This E-sports team really could’ve done any number of different approaches besides just letting him go; makes me wonder if it was indifference, greed in that the higher ups didn’t want to take the risk of accumulating further losses (or some combination of the two perhaps). But regardless I really hope/pray this person is doing better and has some community supporting him.

      @@forgivezharion6989 The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a very fast building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.
      Strategy
      His fast move speed can boost forward mini tanks like an Ice Golem in a push. At the same time, he can also function as a tank for lower hitpoint troops such as Goblins as he still has a fair amount of health. Most cheap swarms complement the Hog Rider well, as they are nearly as fast as him and usually force more than one card out of the opponent's hand.
      The Hog Rider struggles with swarms, as they can damage him down and defeat him quickly while obstructing his path. Barbarians in particular can fully counter him without very strict timing on the defender's part, though be wary of spells.
      A Hunter can kill the Hog Rider in 2 hits if placed right on top of it. However, if you place something in front of the Hog Rider, the Hunter's splash will damage the Hog Rider and hit the card in front of it more.
      The Hog Rider in conjunction with the Freeze can surprise the opponent and allow the Hog Rider to deal much more damage than anticipated, especially if the opponent's go-to counter is a swarm, or swarms are their only effective counter to him. Skeletons and Bats will immediately be defeated by the spell, while Spear Goblins, Goblins, and Minions will be at low enough health to be defeated by a follow up Zap or Giant Snowball.
      However, this strategy isn't very effective against buildings as the Hog Rider will take a while to destroy the building, giving the opponent ample time to articulate another counter.
      Against non-swarm troops, it can deal a lot of damage during the freeze time, but this can allow the opponent to set up a massive counterpush. For this reason, players should either only go for a Hog Rider + Freeze when they have other units backing it up from a counterattack, or if the match is about to end and they need to deal as much damage as possible.
      It is not a good idea to send in a Hog Rider simply to destroy a building, especially if it is the only building targeting unit available, as defeating Crown Towers becomes substantially more difficult. Spells or simply waiting out the lifetime of the building are more effective. The exception to this is an Elixir Collector placed in front of the King's Tower. If a Hog Rider placed at the bridge, he can destroy the Collector for a positive Elixir trade, though the damage from both Princess Towers will usually mean he does not survive to deal any damage to them. However, if the opponent sends in defending troops, it can be an opportunity to gain spell damage value.
      In a deck with several low-cost cards, it might be worth it to simply send the Hog Rider against one building. These decks shuffle their card rotation quick enough, that they will arrive to their next Hog Rider before the next building arrives in the opponent's card rotation.
      Long-ranged troops like Musketeer and Flying Machine can snipe those buildings, preserving some of the Hog Rider's health, possibly allowing it to get some Tower damage.
      When there are buildings placed in the middle to counter the Hog Rider, understanding the placement of the Hog Rider and the type of building placed can help the Hog Rider to bypass certain buildings.
      Passive buildings such as spawners and Elixir Collector have a larger hitbox than defensive buildings; which means that if a passive building was placed 3 tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, then it is impossible for the Hog Rider to bypass that placement as the Hog Rider will get pulled to that building.
      Defensive buildings have a smaller hitbox than a passive building, which means if that if a defensive building was placed three tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, a Hog Rider placed at the very left or right side of the Arena may be able to bypass it due to its smaller hitbox.
      If the player has a building already placed down in the center of the arena, and the opponent tries to bypass it with a Hog Rider at the edge of the arena, they can use certain air troops to push the Hog Rider towards the building as it jumps over the river, effectively denying the bypass attempt. They must be already hovering over the correct placement, as very quick reflexes are required to correctly perform this technique.
      For Bats, Skeleton Dragons, and Minion Horde, they should be placed right in front of the Hog Rider as soon as it is deployed.
      For Minions, Skeleton Barrel, Mega Minion, Flying Machine, Electro Dragon, Baby Dragon, Inferno Dragon, Balloon, and Lava Hound, stagger the above placement one tile to the right if the Hog Rider is placed on the left side of the arena, and vice versa.
      They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower.
      The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push.
      A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted
      A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower.
      This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower.
      The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it.
      A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower.
      Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense.
      The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is.
      A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily.
      A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough.

    That's absolutely despicable. I lost my mom suddenly a while back. I was barely an adult, only just starting getting things going, and over 2 years I ended up burying my sister, mom, and my grandma. I kept it together and despite having really nothing I managed. But practically overnight I had to find a place and figure out how I'd survive. My job wasn't gonna offer paid leave or anything so I had literally 2 days to recoup and I was back to work that Monday.
    I'm telling everyone this because not only do I empathize with him on the deepest levels, but I didn't even get a chance to grieve or deal with my emotions, because I was in survival mode, and it made life harder for years after.

    my mom passed away from cancer when i was a kid, and this is all types of horrendous. punishing someone who wanted to be with their mom in her final moments is despicable. as tragic as it is, there is an acceptance that comes when people are in those late stages of cancer- the patient is in excruciating pain and you know they aren't going to get better, so it becomes less of a battle and more of a matter of time. the family signed a dnr and they knew it was likely going to be that weekend, so why couldn't they just let the man spend time with his mom and not further worsen and taint their final moments together. it also sucks that there'll be no good outcome even after the backlash, because it's not like he'll go back to smg after they've completely ruined their reputation and shown their callousness over a video game. not to mention that he wasn't even missing the bootcamp, just missing whatever team bonding bs they had going on. it's a very tragic situation made worse, and i can't help but feel for boogie. i hope he's found support and work elsewhere in these last couple months. on a side note though, i think this topic was handled really well so thank you for that, charlie. i didn't even start crying until i started writing this comment! the jokes were interspersed well to dissolve the tension that is inherent with topics like these, and i appreciated the clowning on smg's absurdity. you never let it get too heavy for too long.

Be sure to talk to the park staff, as they're very accommodating for people with terminal conditions. You'll probably get priority boarding for the rides, etc.
      If you have the time and budget, check out the James Cameron's Avatar experience in the Disney Animal Kingdom park.

      If they're full, make reservations for the sushi bar. Explain your situation if need be. Once you have reservations, you now have permission to go out on the rooftop observation deck. It has the best vantage point of the fireworks. Totally safe. All the fireworks are eye-level. I think your sibling will love it.

    I once had an aunt who was dying from terminal cancer and wasn't expected to live for more than 2 months, and she lived an 8-hour drive from me. When I told my boss that I needed to take just 3 or 4 days off to see her, he denied my request. When I further tried to explain to him the seriousness of the situation and that my aunt was pretty much on her literal deathbed, he said, and I quote, "Well then maybe you'll need to find another job." I finally got some other manager to let me take the time off, but I had never felt so insulted in my entire life, both for me and my aunt's sake.

      I recently quit and when they tried to fire me it was because I told them I wasn't going to work certain days for my graduation, and they had given me those days, when I took then again they very clearly told me to start looking for another job

    Wild that they go by SMG when the actual acronym for "Stay Moving Under Gunfire" is SMUG. That's a much more fitting name

      Not surprised the owner of the eSportd team Team SLG is from Singapore. People from Singapore have no conscious and are completely money driven and materialism. Odd people that have the gaze of zombies, devoid of life.
