Spot the Workplace Snakes

A CEO that I worked for seduced my wife in direct retaliation for my pushback on him at work. He won. I got divorced and left the company. When I say I truly understand how some executive teams can be political snake pits, I trust you will believe me. Learn from my pain - do the following: 1) When you have a good manager, lean in and take advantage of it. 2) Spot the snakes. 3) Do excellent work, even for nasty leaders. 4) Don’t confront the snakes directly 5) Don’t become a snake

A LinkedIn-style post describes an employee whose CEO seduced his wife after workplace conflict, leading to divorce and resignation. The author then gives ironic career advice about spotting snakes, avoiding confrontation, and not becoming like toxic executives. The punchline is the absurd escalation from ordinary workplace politics to a bizarre personal betrayal.
