A month ago I was pink-sliped after 21 years of service. My last day is the 29th. The lay-off is not for performance reasons; it’s a budget issue, and the dumb-ass director thought it was easiest to axe the lowest-paying position. But they’re not getting rid of the job itself ~ another support person whose title is a level up will replace me, and we all know she is going to fail (even herself).
Today my supervisor asked me to give her a list of my job duties (which she should have in her files). But then she told me to set aside time for me to ‘train’ Susie at my desk. That did it. I said, “You expect ME to train the person who’s going to take MY job???? Are you shitting me?” She looked at me in shock and said “somebody has to do it” then proceeded to yell that if I didn’t want to train Susie then fine, but to still give her that list of duties, then she stormed off like a crazed rhino.
Was proud of myself. That was the closest I ever told my immediate supervisor to go fuck herself. Assuming that a pink-slipped person should train the replacement is the ultimate insult. What happens starting July is not going to be MY problem!
