    I remember back at the beginning of Reddit there was a woman who who modded a shit load of subs and some one doxed her over the fact she was going to advertisers and bossily guiding them through how to navigate Reddit subs. I can not remember her name. She was big in a lot of animal subs and really focused on cats. Anyway Reddit collectively had a meltdown to the point she was getting death threats. She eventfully gave up modding al the subs and disappeared. Man that was like 15 years ago. But anyway but here we are all that time later the the very thing that woman got caught doing this chap is doing and no one gives one single fuck. I wish I could remember her name.

      I never really used reddit, so a lot of the history and lore is lost on me, but I remember two similar events bleeding out as news: the AMA mod being fired, and the interim CEO being fired. Both women, and both ultimately scapegoats for the founders (Spez) making terrible decisions.

    Lead Project Manager and Vice President don’t seem to go together. Or are they like JPMorgan Chase where everyone gets the title?

    Anyway, that reddit experience might actually fly for a marketing role, depending on the interviewers. Dude better be able to relate some real stories with real results though.

      Given it’s a bank I’d say it’s the thing where everyone is a VP.

      If the dude was a true higher up he wouldn’t be bragging about Reddit modding
