Comment on So guess what boss
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 6 hours agoIf they like you, they won’t fire you for any reason (almost), if they don’t like you, they find any reason to fire you.
Jobs are not held or lost on merit, for the most part.

Kinda. Had the CEO want some code changed while the VP of my department was on vacation. Changed the code, and the VP had a grudge against me afterwards because it was code he wrote. A year later a project failed (due to mismanagement) so it was blame game time and the devs got blamed and it was firing time. I didn’t work on the project that ended in failure, I was working on a different project which was a success.
Guess who got fired?
I guess technically it was because the VP didn’t like me. But the reason he didn’t like me is because I did my job and made the software work the way the CEO wanted it to work.
That’s just how she goes. Catch-22 scenarios happen no matter how likable you might be.
