Like Hell I’ll Quit: My Story — and the Plan That Worked

I didn’t just survive being pushed out. The second time, I came out ahead.

A true story: "Like hell I'll quit!"

It took a while to figure out. I was working hard, taking on extra projects — and getting nowhere.

I was praised all year, then picked apart in my review and told I'd get a 0% increase.

I complained to HR. They "tried" to help — but they have the company's best interests at heart, not mine.

The second time it happened, I saw it coming. I stayed calm, documented everything, and played it out for my benefit.
