They took the handle @x from him and moved all of his stuff to @x12345678998765

I’m not sure what would be more angering, losing @x or the fact that they gave him a 16 character handle 15 of which is nonsense.

It’s also just a weird new handle, it’s not even like they tried to replace it with something good, just a jira ticket that says “give him something new, it can start with x but should be clear it’s not associated with us” and someone just rolled over the number keys.
