The business world is not always kind. You are but a small component in this game. You should never feel too comfortable when you finally 'land' that job you believed would be the culmination of your desire since everyone can be replaced. What they fail to mention, though, is that occasionally—just occasionally—one cog is what keeps the entire empire afloat; without it, everything crumbles down.

The story that follows is from a working student who is a web developer at a startup. Everything was going great for OP at first. He was an employee's dream: a genuine fan of the company and its goods, he took great pride in his work. Most of the time, OP was required to work overtime, but he didn't mind. However, things had changed significantly by the second year. At this point, OP regarded himself as a valued worker and genuinely felt that he was a part of the team. Therefore, when the time came for them to think about adding another feature, OP felt at ease raising his concerns. Higher management wasn't pleased with OP's ideas and insisted that OP recognize his place and keep his mouth shut.

Since OP's judgment and professional experience were rejected by the upper management, he came up with the perfect scheme to exact revenge on the company. So, if you're interested in learning what happened between OP and higher-ups, simply scroll down and read the story below!
