Whoever posted this is a total nerdAnonymous User wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 10:27 pmIt’s all true. I wish it was exaggerated. Left KE last yr and heard much of this, including the heart attack story, from RE associates. Admittedly, I heard the associate who had the heart attack wasn’t the best associate so he probably was going to get a negative review anyways. But still…

Haha. What a weird post.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 9:46 pmAre you the heart attack guy? Were you actually a bad associate? I’ve heard through the KE grapevine that you were a pretty bad associate. Apparently meeting deadlines wasn’t exactly in your skill set.

Yeah not saying the post shouldn't draw ire, but nerd wouldn't have been my first choice.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 7:31 pmNerd or total jerk??Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 9:40 pmWhoever posted this is a total nerdAnonymous User wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 10:27 pmIt’s all true.

Maybe I'm wrong - but I took that comment to mean that the review was independent of the heart attack. Like the associate was not very responsive/good and the review was written based on that performance and not his unresponsiveness during a medical emergency.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 8:01 amYeah not saying the post shouldn't draw ire, but nerd wouldn't have been my first choice.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 7:31 pmNerd or total jerk??Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 9:40 pmWhoever posted this is a total nerdAnonymous User wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 10:27 pmIt’s all true.

Still, they should have held off on giving the review given the timing of the heart attack, but I don't think the person who made that comment was trying to disparage the associate. Think just pointing out that it was independent, although the timing was piss poor from an optics point of view.
