It might not have to be 100% MU but there needs to be a certain %, you can't just donk off someones money and walk away clean, so stupid.
That's just the business angle. There is also the moral, ethical aspect which Cate has clearly failed. Even if she is not legally obligated a decent person would at least offer some level of MU.
I'm pretty sure Amazon factory works also hate their jobs and they are not making 500k a year. They bite their lips and work for 30k a year. If she really did throw away 500k a year because she 'didn't like it' shes dumber than she appears. I am still skeptical anything has been verified. Its not hard to scam up some piece of paper. How do we know she wasn't actually sacked from her job for being a junkie or incompetent?
Firstly, all your posts on here indicate a large amount of anger and bitterness. I wish you the best with working through all of that
As far as her previous salary goes, why is everyone so obsessed with this and also so amazed? I'm sure a large part is envy and yes it is far above average, but a lot of talented people earn a lot of money in various fields.
Is the disbelief because she quit? Well if she hated her job she was right to quit. Your $30k amazon worker is a ridiculous comparison. that hypothetical person may not have any choice due to lack of savings or alternative job opportunities. CH would have had decent savings and various other options. there are many possible reasons to hate a job, insane workload, bad culture, work relationship issues, disillusionment with what you are doing. But if you truly "hate" a job then sticking with it when you have alternatives would usually be a bad decision.
Also, it's not like she had to cut off her brain when she left. at the time she'd have known she could always go back to that type of work if she chose to.
as to the bolded, we know this because in this day of internet detectives/social media etc. it would have for sure come out if she'd actually been sacked for these or other reasons
