It's lousy to lose your job, especially over workplace drama. I'd suggest learning a valuable lesson from it, that sometimes it's better to just let things go. It's good to be assertive, but there's a time for that and a time to just let things calm down.

I would apply for unemployment and use her not getting fired to get it they had no proof to use to fire you. If thee is ever another time I would write notes with dates and times of when it happens so you can use it to prove your side of the story

The biggest word that stuck out is entitlement. It says it all and means everything to them. You don’t want to work for that company, they did you the biggest favor.

Wait what?!?!? What did HR have to say about it? It seems like if this was the first time anything like this has happened then they would have written you up or given you a verbal warning. I would definitely be fighting that or atleast getting unemployment if I were you. I am so sorry that happened

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
