They dominate the news. They’re a toxic influence on the workplace. They’re awful to spend time with and they’re often in charge. Ta-Nehisi Coates defined an asshole as “a person who demands that all social interaction happen on their terms”. How can you better survive contact with an asshole? How do you work in an industry littered with them without becoming one? Hosted by Andy Doe, who managed six whole sentences about assholes without mentioning Trump. Come prepared to seek closure through sharing (optional) and drinking (less optional). No recording please.
