  • at my old company I had a co-worker who was moderately competent if he tried but didn’t seem to do so all that often.

    My boss had been dangling a promotion for me for a few months, and I’d put in some extra work during that time related to my co-worker who seemed to be unable to manage a development team for one of his projects.

    promotion time came and even though my manager was very aware that I was doing a significant portion of a co-worker’s job, they offered the co-worker the promotion in order to keep them around since they had another job offer.

    I think I was gone in about 2 months? didn’t take too long to line something better up.


  • we’ve got a foosball table in my office, and while it obviously wouldn’t make the difference between staying and not if the pay wasn’t already good and the job wasn’t something I liked I do enjoy getting to play foosball.

    I’m at a pretty flat company though with a very laid back leadership. I’ve even had managers pull me out of a call in order to play foosball lol.

    whenever I decide to be in the office, I think I get in one to three games during the day? something like that.
