I already did that, but it was a beautiful feeling
WorkerLurker
I left a laundry night manager job after college to one in my field, it caught fire the next day under the new guy… poor guy, bad luck.
theoracleofdreams
The non profit I left decided to reduce the philanthropic work because they couldn't keep up with the paperwork I used to do.

Like all leaders, Pelosi has her flaws, but even the worst Democrat is a shining beacon compared to the best Republican
Drix1942
Got fired for breaking 1 work rule because the owners didn't respect my wishes to ban certain repeat offense customers. Place closed 1/2
Drix1942
2/2 within a couple of months because they couldn't retain new employees for more than a couple of weeks. I had worked there for 3 years.

I don't wish it will fall apart, I just know it will.
GreaterDog
Remember when Paul Ryan was speaker because no other GOP wanted the job?
nangke
Didn't McCarthy want it back then too?
TomMorris61
After I left all senior staff in my dept (IT) quit, 6 months later they were hit by malware, and after I left nobody did tape backups ?
bekindtoanimals
Ooof
Ikingg
Did you document and automate the process ?
temposaur
Of course not because it wasn't company policy.
Targe0
Oof. Big fucking Oof.

Speaker of the House would be president if the pres and the vice died right?
Syko73
I think this sentiment is misplaced because Congress not functioning is bad for the whole country, not just the republicans.
LordLobster
When terrorists are governing, you want it to not function; Otherwise they hurt america more.
Blacktusk
Not to mention the demands are things like, "give insurrectionists committee seats' and "force the govt to default." More nonfunction awaits
ReaperCDN
Sometimes something needs to be outright broken before anybody will do a damn thing to fix it. Republicans have had this coming a long time.
alex5775
That's a nice thought, but I see no fixing of this in our near future
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
It's also important that the GOP in particular is seen front and center shitshowing in real time. It's not 'government bad', it's *them*.
drmfreek
I left my job and worked an agreement to contract to cover and train my replacement for 3 months at double my old pay. It was still cheap.
Spaceqowboy
Yes. It’s the nice “Told ya. Do not call me anymore”. Man I was high on that feeling for weeks ?

Elie Mystal rocks
etherealvision
Got fired a couple years ago because the manager didn't like me. The team was pissed about this and the whole department collapsed due to it
Thisisirrelvantcontent
Learning the job you did all by yourself now requires 3 people who can't get it done in time - sweeeeeet
FafnirMH
I've come to understand that you should never train someone to do your job without extra compensation.
DangerBaer
You had me at "never train someone". Although my work situation is highly toxic, so eff 'em.
ReaperCDN
^ Ding. If I'm a supervisor, pay me like one.
FafnirMH
Not to mention everyone should value their skills and experience. Do not give them away for free.
umbrellamaker
Every time I get back from vacation I get to hear about what went wrong because I wasn't there
R100GSPD
When I left my last job they hired 3 people to replace me.
psylent13
After I quit because they wouldn't give me a raise, they had to hire 3 people to do my job. Would've been cheap to pay me the extra $1.75/hr
nangke
You would've been a bargain at even double your salary
fredh67
Yes... they have not fired me, yet, but I've been refusing to work a second of overtime. I feel like this is coming - I'm not /
fredh67
indispensable, but they will have a lot of difficulty, and certainly end up spending a LOT more.
psylent13
Exactly. Nobody is indispensable, but your work ethic isnt everyone's ethic. And I had been there for 5 yrs with no raise for 3 yrs prior.
FireSolvesProblems
What if Reps are just doing this to slow things down & be a pain in the ass?
AbsolutelyNotBacon
Almost everyone at the company I work for right now is planning on quitting next month. The boss doesn't know yet lmao.
ionicseraph
Secretly?
worldoutsidemyhead
I'm sorry, I can't get over the title. In Dutch, 'lul' is a slang word for penis.
JustAnotherCynicToo
I've done this for at least four jobs.
WadeWilson74
Once. 3 months later that office closed. 90% of employees let go and the others went to another office.
Hogwaller
Want to know why the MAGAs hate her? She's. Just. that. Damn. Competent. It there is one thing MAGA's hate it is people who can do a job.
TheMightyPootis
Left a retail job last June cuz they were just giving thrice the amount of work with 0 pay increase-- I was basically asst. manager--(1/?)
TheMightyPootis
without the extra pay. Decide to leave after a full year to go work someplace else for more and do less: I come by in November, there's(2/?)
TheMightyPootis
only about 7 out of the mid/high double digits people who are STILL working there. Even those who worked longer than I've lived were gone.

The GQP melting down is SO funny Sweet Potato Hitler fucked up the GQP so bad they can't even elect one of their own with Majority Standing>

>This shit is Historic. Since Trump, the Republican Party has just been self immolating.
WhereAreTheTurtle
A small part of the party* majority of republicans I talked to are more than happy to support Desantis.
EleganceIsDead
That's what's awesome; Trump has divided the Party so much they have no prayer for Presidency. There are Reps pencilin in Trump for Speaker.
nclu
Until recently I was in awe of their ability to maintain party cohesion through their strict management and powerful propaganda arm. 1/
nclu
Seeing them fall to pieces because the propaganda was so thoroughly internalized that "true believers" moved into leadership is chef's kiss
kuriosly
Its been fracturing for years. I'm suppressed it's taken so long though, as a portion of the tea party were opposed to some factions.
kuriosly
Of course it doesn't help that the Tea Party was hijacked by personalities like Hannity and Palin.
EleganceIsDead
They fucked themselves with their own brainwashing (including all the idiot Covid deaths) & unlike b4 where their single minded>
EleganceIsDead
>focus kept'em above water now they're fragmenting into bigger idiot factions. They even lost grip internally on the Abortion issue. The>
CheeseburgertheSinister
That'll be me next week. I'm the only one at my company who knows how to use a particular program.
3RsReadingRitingRithmatic
It's a great feeling. I left and then several other engineers bounced. They recently called me for help. Was a hoot.
GlenL
Have you figured out what your consulting fee will be?

sometimesifeellikeanut
I will never understand how workplaces choose to be ignorant about these kinds of things.
Vloudimestre
I had this argument at all my jobs. Nowadays it's "Agile means no documentation". Be honest, just admit you hate to doc your software.
sometimesifeellikeanut
Wait. You don't have to do documentation in Agile? Everywhere I go seems to have their own version of Agile. All I do is document.
snazzbasket
We had a guy do that years ago, they called him back within a week and offered him $200 an hour to train someone. Took 6 months...
ballsoutflyer
I hope he was smart and didn't teach the trainee everything he knew.
Sasurau
Or taught him real, *real* slow :)
Snooj
They fired someone at my company the day before she was supposed to train me how to use one program no one knew how to use. I was able 1-
Lvaneede
I was the one who had to take over management of the backups. It seemed ok until someone got ransomware.
Lvaneede
And by take over, I mean work out how it was set up with almost no instructions from the person who left
Snooj
to figure it out. Not to dampen your spirits but most people are more replaceable than they think. 2-2
herpyderpidy
Yeah, this is what usually happens, but there's always loss knowledge and if you do this too often, this is where the ship starts going down
SithElephant
And some companies will be tipped over the edge the first time.
fredh67
No one is indispensable. My company would have a hard time if I left, but they'd muddle through it and eventually hit status quo again.
SithElephant
Sometimes people actually are indespensable and managment does not know it, and the company is fucked. Both from a 'not retaining vital
fredh67
In very rare situations, maybe... like I wrote the software and no one can use it but me, but many people think they are, and what really
fredh67
happens is that the company is inconvenienced for a time, often spending more than it would take to keep someone, but they muddle through.
SithElephant
staff with adequate conditions' and people getting hit by a bus POV.
TheatreStreet
And vital employee gets fed up and starts working for the competition eventually putting the business out of business
SithElephant
That is sort of arguably in non compete territory rather than 'he was the only one that knew how the machine worked'
