Am one of those who will leave on 2/20 - and the team us now wanting to get all the knowledge. I know is not my manager/directors fault - but they had no shame telling my role was not needed = eliminated
I played nice till now. But 1/1 - dont bother me no ‘mo - figure it out
Cause remind that “VP leader” who made the choiced - my role is not needed. Therefore - you dont need my knowledge
Guess who gonna play the “ am sorry - I dont know the answer to that question anymore”
No need to burn a bridge. No need to be a doormat, either. People who showed no interest in knowing how to do the heavy lift that you were doing all this time don't need to become your responsibility now that you aren't necessary, and they are staying behind collecting a paycheck. Having self-respect is not a crime, despite what many people seem to think. That's not the same thing as yelling, making scenes, insulting people. Dignity and self-respect.
@c4 so much this. "well who is going to do that? who does this? how will we ?" good thing we kept a bunch of ADs. Make sure to get your POs approved and sitting in meetings all day about the work the ICs are doing and you have no understand of
whatever you do, don't burn a bridge....if you have an anger, just keep it under.
it's a small world and you never know when you encounter again
...And yet @ce, you applied your stratospheric intellect in order to infer the meaning of the posts anyway. Bravo, you. Perhaps you'd like it in a slide deck, with pretty colors and illustrations next time? No doubt you work for Verizon, if not in reality, certainly in spirit.
Grammar police distraction aside, the discussion was about people being told they aren't needed, only to find superiors and colleagues - who are supposed to already know how to handle this work, too - frantic for assistance on "a few things" before the unnecessary coworker goes. Sudden amnesia CAN be brought on by the trauma of being let go.
Proof reading is definitely not one of your skills....
Meh don't worry. AI will figure it out. Right? RIGHT?!?!
Man this year is going to be a $h1tshow.
Yout role is no longer necessary. But could you tell us how you do this, and this, and this, too... and show us how this works... and what does this thing over here does... and how to fix this critical thing when it keeps breaking every 5 minutes, and could you write us a manual that explains this in simple terms, just in case we didn't catch it the last three times you explained it... or that time you told us we'd created a very risky single point of failure and should apply resources against this instead of our stupid pet project that the VP absolutely loves and got us promoted... Sure, V-Team. Keep telling yourselves this is going to end well.
