I left my last job and trained the guy that I wanted them to promote, but they needed a second person to replace me. I just heard they now have 3 people doing my job.
I was quite well paid (95k)but I’d rather get paid half as much now to leave work at work after 8 hours and never have work emails or calls or meetings on my own time ever again.
Lucky them. My company is attempting the Jenga strategy. How many core people can leave without replacement before it all crumbles. They’re absolutely confident they can just hire some people once it’s clear that it’s all falling apart and those people will be able to save the tower before it falls.
When everything runs smoothly thanks to your contribution it becomes the new norm. Then management expects things to just work that way and whoever they hire next is fucked.
