Department Manager Hires Credit Stealing Friend, Career Gets Destroyed


Man, oh, man, this department manager (Michael) learned their lesson about not pulling strings for a buddy (Darren) who was not qualified for the job at all. Fortunately, the rest of the employees were ready to band together and write just the kind of program that had the bugs and glitches necessary to highlight Darren's gross lack of expertise. From there, the lies were revealed, and the prompt firings were had.

Text - r/ProRevenge + Join u/Deadlock1989 • 2d Pass me for manager promotion and hire your useless credit stealing friend, i'll destroy your career. Long story TLDR at bottom. So this is not my story (got permission to post from the prorevenger himself) but due to nature of events i don't mind my account being made into a sacrificial lamb if it got back to people involved as my account is essentially expendable.

Text - So the story, dave (not real name) has been working for an I.T programming company for just over 9 years, getting a good rep as a hard worker and all his colleagues knew him and can trust him to be a big help in times of trouble, like during big difficult projects for major clients. Daves manager (john) was planning to retire and thought dave would be a good replacement so put his name forward as a recommendation and started showing him the ropes of his potential new job just to give him

Text - Back to story, michael had started the interviews to fill john's position, dave being one of the interviewees and dave thought the interview went really well. A few nervous months later michael announces the new manager, it's an outside employment not an internal promotion. Dave was disappointed but brushed it off as "there is always someone better for the job", but in less than a week he realised just how wrong he was. The new manager (darren) was below useless, he didn't know how to spe

Text - Darren from day one had been pushing all his work on to others and then claiming credit for the work they had done getting bonuses for completed work he didn't deserve, darren spent his days watching movies, napping, playing games anx occasionally pretending to be a manager when the need arose but never wrote a single line of code. After 3 months of this the extra work load was starting to effect dave and others but talking to michael would do nothing so dave devised a plan to sort it out

5.

Text - Time for the pro revenge, dave had talked with all the other programmers and agreed next time darren pushed a major project onto them to purposely sabotage the work, not in a big way just enough to cause some bugs and glitches that will really light a fire under michael and darren. It took about another month but a really big project came in, immediately darren started pushing his work onto others and stealing credit so the plan was put into action. It was easy to accomplish, especially a

6.

Text - The project was done, saved and sent to the client with almost all of the major work credit being stolen by darren, it took less than 2 days for the client to call back complaining about how the new program has damaged his systems and was wrecking havoc on his company, the client wanted it fixing and a full refund. The bosses were pissed at michael, michael tried to shift the blame onto darren, darren tried to shift the blame onto the programmers, dave and the programmers just pointed out

Text - TLDR department manager hires useless credit stealing friend as manager, programmers sabotage big project, both managers get full blame and are fired. 3.0k 52 1 Share
