Caught the firm's golden boy losing his cool in the lobby bathroom again.
Saw him in the bathroom at 11:30 PM. He was leaning against the mirror, suit jacket discarded on the floor, tie already ripped off. He was just breathing, like, actually struggling to get air into his lungs while staring at his own reflection. He didn't even notice I was washing my hands at the basin. He looked like he was vibrating. As soon as his phone buzzed, he checked it, adjusted his cufflinks, put on that icy, unbothered expression, and walked out like nothing happened. This guy handles half the high-stakes mergers in the city but he can't make it to midnight without a total system collapse.
He's probably just stressed about the pending merger everyone's whispering about. Everyone cracks under that kind of pressure.
Reply to MergerManic： This isn't just stress. He was hyperventilating.
Typical corporate high-performer burnout. He'll crash hard eventually.
Wait, did he look at the phone and instantly reset? That's terrifying control.
I've heard rumors his old man is a mess too. Maybe it's genetic? Anxiety is a beast.
He acts so untouchable in meetings. This makes him look way more human than I thought possible.
Does he ever actually sleep? I swear I see him on the streets at 5 AM every morning.
You guys are talking about . I worked at his firm for a month and he basically lives in his office. I'm not surprised he's snapping.
That's definitely the guy from the downtown firm. I've seen him at events, he never drops the facade.
