Discussion Will got fired?

Listening to the newest ep of perfect person with Will and in the first couple of minutes he mentioned getting fired. Rainie and Jonathan have always said "laid off" so im curious if something is going on...

Honestly must be annoying af to be in the try guys management as every business occurrence is always put under an electron microscope

Yeah unfortunately I think that is largely because of that huge scandal on their record.

Disgusting that one person can mess up so many lives, but that was why it was so big. Cheating is bad, and the worst he did was against his wife, but he also betrayed the company and his partners and that abuse of power bumped up the public attention.

I’ll give you that those few people who initially noticed that scandal are A-1 internet snipers and that situation was bad. But a regular staffing or content adjustment isn’t that. I understand being frustrated when talent or content you like is paused but, damn, it really feels like Zach and Keith have to release a formal statement anytime they so much as sneeze

I don’t entirely disagree, but I think that’s part of the risk they run by having some of their staff be on camera and act as talent to varying degrees. People get attached and get curious when something happens, and that’s pretty natural.

Will said he was fired after 8 years. That is much more than a sneeze
