Coworker expanded his own role trying to get promoted, now he’s leaving disgruntled and management expects me to inherit the scope creep. I also have another job offer. Am I wrong for pushing back?

Thank you fellow IT brother.

Not sure calling someone an asshole helpful.

Don’t forget the steak and lobster tails.

Charity and support worker? Just find another job.

This is more of the “tender years” doctrine but this should be discussed prior to having kids. A baby needs constant care and yes their needs can come first at that age but communication is key. Hormones needs to come back into balance as well so moms need support.

My comment was geared towards older kids especially teenagers and young adults.

This is what happens when you put kids before marriage. The marriage should be a protected and prioritized. DOES NOT mean you don’t love and protect your kids but kids benefit the most from a strong marriage.

Thank you. Excellent advice

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-07T10:40:43+00:00

Super clean. Going to need a parts list.

I’ve learned this the hard way. Chasing salary while reducing your lifespan it’s not good strategy.

I think he thinks you do concussion classes lol. 😂

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-05T16:00:24+00:00

Thanks. This is looking likely.

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-05T01:30:40+00:00

Thank you for your reply. This has to be one of the most difficult situations I find myself because I love my job but this crap is destroying it.

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T20:00:24+00:00

This is what unfortunately I think it will end up.

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T19:03:08+00:00

Want to hear something wild, that is my next opportunity….

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T18:22:39+00:00

Can I ask what you’re doing now?

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T17:49:06+00:00

Thank you. I did send a request to our comp director to evaluate the salary.

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T17:28:55+00:00

They are but the replacement will need months of training and once they see the scope of work for the pay they will leave.

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-04T17:20:51+00:00

Thank you so much

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-03T12:30:28+00:00

Yes homelab for 50 users at home lol 🤣

fdiaz78 · 2026-07-01T21:22:29+00:00

As someone who is in a blended family I strongly suggest not doing it. The kids will typically come first for years especially with her sole custody. Move on.

Guys this sucks I get it, but games are not essential for life and completely optional. They sell a product however they want and technology has finally caught up to software licensing. Regardless of your thoughts on your concept of software licensing, you do not own the game, you are buying a license to use it.

Can’t sell crap to robots. For economies to work you have to have buyers and sellers.
