The image is formatted in a tweet with image format. The caption says "handle with care" over two pictures. The first picture is of an Amazon package with "fragile" written in sharpie. The second picture is on the inside the box with a paper and the text "a middle manager's ego" on it.

I had a boss who never gave me a raise, didn't believe in reviews, and had long rambling meetings where he just said whatever he was thinking. Sometimes it seemed he forgot we were there, and he'd start arguing with himself. He was more "the insecure nerd who got the CTO position because he was the only IT guy when the company started." His management was so incompetent, that they called him "Tallest," based on the Invader Zim joke.
