Essential Engineer Fired For His New Supervisor's Malicious Mistake, Hired Back On Steep Contract Rate When Company Faces Millions in Losses

This worker, who was the sole person at the company who was capable of doing his job, ended up on the wrong side of a malicious manager. When the manager made an extremely obvious error and let an entire (now unstaffed) department fall over he was sure to hang it on u/PeaceNGrease.

The thing is... since u/PeaceNGrease was the only person capable and qualified of doing his job, they quickly realized that they were going to lose millions of dollars. Which left u/PeaceNGrease in the ideal position to negotiate a high contracted rate to train the new hires.

The big takeaway from this story seems to be that he should have asked for more. But $20,000 is a pretty penny and will pay for a nice vacation that he wouldn't have gotten otherwise!
