Sounds like you should frick his wife

DEFINITELY frick his wife. Get his daughter pregnant, too. Then he has to decide between helping his daughter raise a bastard or see you all the time. Also, since he didn't get you the good job, child support isn't going to be as high.

If there is something that only you can do then they aren't going to let you go to another position. There are a lot of people who don't get to move up because those people don't train anyone to do their job.

I'm aware of that, but if you truly are ambitious in upward movement than all of those should be red flags that you are at the wrong company.

If you are the type that likes the government utility job and you advance due to seniority, and it's your turn than I get why you would stay.

Bet it made you feel smug and pious writing this.

Everyone has done this before, so raise up off of the gAy&M poster’s nuts.

Then walk if given the chance. There will be no pot out gold at the end of the rainbow. GE and Chevron Corporate scum backgrounds will put a knife in your back in less than a second.

Exactly, you may think you win a moral battle by stomping your feet and quitting but take the high road, get a better job and then leave on good terms. They still get screwed over by you leaving, it's just you win on the better job and more $.

It would be ironic if your company is monitoring your posts on the O-T
