Patrick Shyu, a former tech lead at Google, has posted a series of videos making fun of Facebook, where he worked as a software engineer until last month.
It's not about any ordinary day, but rather the day Facebook fired him just over a month ago. In the clip, he pretends to walk into a meeting with a human resources representative, who fires him, in part because she didn't like his YouTube channel. Shyu then proceeds to make fun of Facebook and criticize its culture, calling it a "popularity contest," where ideas and projects are driven by likes and comments instead of logic.
"Imagine receiving multiple notifications every day where people are just telling me what they've accomplished, how great they are," Shyu said in the video. Shyu, whose "TechLead" YouTube channel has over 500,000 subscribers, has been routinely poking Facebook, publishing six videos about getting fired since the day he says he was dismissed, Aug. 26. On that day, he posted a video titled "I got fired from Facebook ," which he shot from his car after apparently leaving the office. He also tweeted out the announcement with a link to the video.
"I know that everybody is shocked," he said. "And at a dire time like this, I feel like what we really need to do is just take a pause, and thank our sponsor." He then launches into an advertisement.
