    Absolutely. So the key is to understand the management chain above you and optimize that relationship. You either give them just enough that they would fire someone else first, or you make them dependent on you. Of course the real problem is when someone in the change swaps out from a benevolent manager to dick :)

      Had this happen with a VP seat. The resignations that followed made the office look like ground-zero for an extinction-level event.

        Probably moaning the whole time that people didn’t want to work and they’d replace them all with better, cheaper people
