I was living with my fiancee in Mississippi working 2 eight-hour jobs. Other than straining our relationship, it was slowly making me age quicker than normal (stress, no sleep, bad eating habits, etc.) But that is only the back story to the worst job! -)
A female friend back in California (I had known for 10 years before I met my fiancee) had married a rich man who was the founder of a telecommunications company. She had boasted on my skills and I received a call from her (and him) with a job offer...2x what I was making working 2 jobs. The fiancee and I talked it over and I moved to California with the plan: work 6 months...if it worked out...move her out. IF not, move back to Mississippi.
Here is the bad part: The job turned into a Swinger-nightmare. The company owner was a very evil sociopath. He employed ex-cons on parole or current ex-addicts on court ordered job requirements. IF anyone didn't do everything the owner said, he would make up some ********, report them, and they would be sent off to prison for parole violations. Add to this that my female friend was being gaslighted & manipulated into being the owner's private slut...he paid for face/body lifts, boobs, the works...now he OWNS her.
The nature of the job didn't reveal itself right away...I was starting to see "behind the curtain" slowly over months at this job. Installing telephone equipment was merely the tip of a very twisted iceberg. The reality came into sharper focus when the owner requested my help (since I was more computer-centric than him) installing a camera system in his house...so his then-wife (my female friend) would do house work in the nude and **** random strangers sent by him...and charge people online $$$ to watch. I quoted him a huge sum of $100,000 to get it all up and running...and he declined....as I hoped he would.
It took 9 months before my fiancee could sell the house in Mississippi and get her affairs in order. I flew back, packed her house into a huge UHaul truck, pull her car on a trailer behind it, and moved her to California. After exactly 1 year to the day, I quit.
Yes, he tried to force me into doing evil things but had NOTHING to hold over my head. He tried to order his wife (my female friend) to **** me on camera...so he would have leverage (threats to expose me to my fiancee) but this just solidified my female friend to start divorce proceedings.
She got a very hefty settlement (he was worth million$) and got her life back on a normal track. The communication company still exists, the owner continues to pull the same **** and wins every lawsuit brought by ex-employees (many who are still in prison)!
