Today marks the start of my first week of unemployment after quitting. My boss and I were into each other, but he refused to pursue anything with me while I worked there because it would’ve been unethical. So I quit.

Worth it.

    Because my ex boss blocked me from a promotion because I was her best worker.

    I was working support, and was learning full stack in my spare time. Showed the Devs in the company some of my projects, and that’s when they wanted me to work with them, since I already knew the system. Since I was rejected, I found a dev job within 2 weeks, and handed in my resignation. My manager was furious and asked why; the look on her face when she realised that it was because of her was great.

    Now working as a fullstack developer for 4 years.

    Fuck you, Lena!

      This happened here. I wanted one of our AP guys for the accounting department, it would have been a promotion for him but the AP manager wouldn’t let him go. He quit and got an accounting position at a place closer to his house, so good for him but I’m still kinda mad about it.
