iirc, he quit because it was "too hard". Typical Jay.

I'm starting to suspect he was actually fired. His employer felt 8 computers in 8 hours should be the minimum he was doing and wanted him to do more. Jay felt as if it was literally a physical impossibility to do more than 8 and could barely cope with doing 8. His employer made it clear that he expected more. Jay responded with a huge fucking e-mail detailing exactly why it is a physical impossibility to do 8+ jobs per day (even though the other employees somehow managed).

I think after he sent that e-mail he was either fired or his boss suggested he quit. I really don't believe him when he says he was invaluable to his boss (considering his boss was demanding more work out of him) and that he straight-up quit against his boss's wishes.

Didn't he say he was only doing 3 computers a day, or did I misread/misremember?

EDIT: In the e mails linked in this thread I mean

I think it is. His boss wanted 8+ per day and Jay only managed to do 8 on a couple of occasions. His coworkers were doing a minimum of 8 per day and his boss wanted him to fall into line with the rest. He claimed it was physically impossible to do more than 8.

So as usual he's below average/terrible at one of the things he claims to be good at. No surprises there.

IIRC the last stream he did ran at a snails pace as he had at least 50+ tabs open. He blamed it on his computer not being "top of the range".

Yet he was doing those 'corrections' on me about my laptop has too many apps on, but my laptop is quite old by now and only ran the same number apps as I use on my Mac, usually 4 or 5 and my Mac is capable of running 5 apps. It could be Livestream isn't compatable for my laptop, like my friends laptops, they struggle to put Livestream on as it lags too much.

His computer is from 2008. It was specced for gaming when he got it, but it's out of date now and it consistently has issues.

House Geis seem unwilling to part with old tech. In one dA journal Jay mentions that he and his brother win a vidya competition when they were kids and his brother still used the PC they bought with the prize money, almost ten years later.
There's also a bunch of journals where Jay tries to set up a Windows 95 emulator because it's his preferred OS.
