I had an opportunity to get promoted to a different department and he blocked it by saying they cant hire/ backfill so cant let me transfer.


Wtf is this a thing? What can I do?

I meet with him and my director in 8 mins.

You gone.


Seriously, I was just persistent. Long story short - I won.

Posting to a message board was the first thing you could come up with?

you can ask for a raise that would be the same as what the new position wouldve paid or you can quit because you dont want to be part of a company where they wont allow you to excel and move up

I used to work for a company like that. I've never seen it happen , though. Sorry Baw.

Can you talk to your boss to find out how he can help "make it right" ? More compensation maybe?

There is something that only I can do that’s due in three weeks. Should I give two weeks and a vacation threat?

Ask for a raise that would be comparable to what you would have gotten with the promotion or quit. Pretty much your only 2 options.

You need to practice on your blow job technique.

Your handle is the key.
1. Life is not fair.
2. Ask for raise 5% greater than the other job. Its one thing to save their bacon but its quite another to eat shite while you do.

Tell the director you want the promotion, but agree to cover your current duties for 2 months or until someone else is hired, the shortest of the two options

Who called the meeting?

them or did you request it?

If they called it, see what they have to say

If you requested it, tell them you want a damn good explanation and that if they dont fix it (i.e. give you a raise thats comparable to what you wouldve been paid in the new position), you're going to walk

This is why you have at least 6 months living expenses available in cash.
