Imagine your boss announcing to the whole company that you're leaving them when you're not. And imagine your boss did this after you put in more effort than anyone else on your team on this new upcoming project, only to be replaced on the project by unqualified coworkers.
This Redditor was completely blindsided by their boss and was taken aback when their apparent "departure" was announced at the company meeting. It turns out that it wasn't even an unceremonious firing at all. The reason why she was replaced on the project is that her boss was convinced that she would be leaving some time soon and that someone else should therefore take over the project. The only problem is OP is still expected to do all the work on said project but without the proper credit. Talk about an insulting low blow. One has to wonder if the employee said or did something that would warrant such duplicitous behavior in such a public fashion. However, it seems that her boss is simply paranoid.
There's a much simpler solution to this fear of his. He should invest in training her coworkers to understand the project well, working under her and preparing in case they ever needed to step up. Still, the employee had no plans to leave and her word should be taken seriously. Keep scrolling below to see what people are suggesting she should do next.
