Most all of you know my situation here with my current employer, well it just went from bad to worse.
I’ve been bending over backwards for this company the last two weeks as some of the other designers have been taking off due to being sick (legitimately). I’ve been staying late and doing work that I’m really not even supposed to be doing.
So yesterday I have to leave work at 1:30. I had to take my finance’ to a specialist for a private matter... a potentially serious matter at that. I return today and about 10 minutes ago get an email from my old boss with a link to a job board saying, “Isn’t this YOUR job?”
The company I’m working at posted my job on the very same job board that I applied to not long ago. Un-fucking believable. Talk about adding insult to injury. This caught me pretty much be surprise as I’ve actually single-handedly kept their fucking heads out of the water for the past three weeks, and, on Monday had to take over an InDesign job for the Creative Director who posted my job because (and I’m not kidding) the Creative Director didn’t know how to place an image, re-size the image, create a text box or create a column of text in InDesign. Wow. And I’M the one they need to get rid of!?!?!?!
So now I need some good vibes and a little fresh air before I apply to the job posting with pdf samples of all the bullshit work I’ve done for them since being hired on.
I have a potential new job in the works but if it comes through I won’t hear about it until Monday... and on Monday it’s either a “yes” or “no” from them. I’m hoping it’s a yes now because for some fucked up reason they’re trying to replace me.
Little do they know I informed the only 3 people here I trust to keep it a secret and all of them are searching for a new job as I type this.
Can you believe it?
Now I have to sign off again. B.S. Good vibes are needed guys and gals.

in the situation like that, we all get pissed, upset and very furious.
but, as we all know, the best decision won't come when you are in that hot-head mode.
let's step back and think what you can do. what's the best course of action? do you have a back up plan for the backup? how can you turn things around?
in any case, you need to leave the company like that. it's waste of your time.

I hope you stated some of the things you just told us to your boss when he confronted you.

holy crap. that's so insanely shitty of them.
good luck but yeah, find a new job and then it seems like that's a good one to leave in the dust.

Get the fook outta there...
Then come back at night and put toothpicks into all of the door locks and break them off. Good luck getting back into the office, even with a locksmith!
* mr.doblina would appreciate the vengence.
