The Partner asked me my opinion on a hiring decision. I told him I'm not getting paid enough for that. I don't think he found that funny. :(

Not funny at all. Could have just said they seem like an okay fit or not. Or if you’re not sure just say so.

CH 1 - absolutely not. The partner asked an honest question. OP should have answered the question the best he or she could. Part of our job at all levels is recruiting the best talent possible. I don’t want some jack off on my team and I’m sure you don’t too.

@AS1 Really? I haven't learned this in my seven years of public. There are times when I've made that comment to my partner and stand by it. Years ago, I found an employee of a client someone something that caused them to be fired. I insisted my partner relay this because I'm not paid enough to ruin someone's day.
