    Unrelated-ish, but the job that treated me the best and gave me raises at the drop of a hat, also was the one that betrayed me the hardest and set me up to choose between replacing my team of a dozen people with foreign workers, or lose my own job.

    It felt like something out of Better Call Saul, the way they “suggested” that I “look into the option” of outsourcing our team, and when I said that I didn’t think it would save us as much money as keeping a domestic team who knows what they’re doing, they nodded and suddenly let me go a couple months later after treating me like a rock star up until that moment.

    They did eventually fire everyone and move operations to India.
