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.
