'That's my job': Interview candidate calls company, accidentally speaks to the employee she might replace, employee left aghast
This job candidate thought it was a good idea to call up the company she was interviewing for, until she realized she made a huge mistake. That's because the marketing assistant who answered the phone just so happened to be the very person the Redditor would be replacing if she were to get the position. It gets worse…. the current employee had absolutely no idea she was being replaced at all. Talk about a shady boss and a major red flag for the interview candidate!
If this story serves a purpose, it is the fervent reminder that no matter how much you feel comfortable at your company, your managers and higher-ups can turn on you any second. In fact, in this instance, they already did turn on the employee, and she didn't even know it yet. One has to wonder what the marketing assistant did after she hung up the phone. Did she confront her boss about what happened? Did she give him a piece of her mind? Or did she stay quiet and start looking for another job immediately? Or did she just quit on the spot? All of these avenues are valid ones when you have been blind-sided like that.
