On September 13, 2011, my department manager and a rep from Human Resources informed me that "you have not been selected" (to continue in the new organization). I so wanted to break out in a big grin and say THANK YOU! But the department manager and HR rep seemed so solemn I could not spoil the mood for them. I will cry as I deposit the severance check, collect my pension and as it's an INVOLUNTARY retirement also get unemployment :-)
If you do below average, you are fired.
But if you do above average, you get more work for the same amount of money.
There is no way of winning when you work for someone else.
I've had jobs in which I prayed daily to be laid off or fired. Those are the ones that typically last the longest. Perhaps it is their longevity which gives us the perspective we have of the company dynamics, wherein we realize that there isn't a single position or advancement that would bring us joy. No raise or promotion would change the futility that engulfs us as soon as we drive into the parking lot every day...
