'They lost': Engineering firm removes employee from project to punish them, replacing them with inexperienced project manager who runs project into the ground

To cut a long story short, this employee's VP removed them from a project in order to punish them, and what ended up happening was that as a result, the firm lost big time. But wait, it gets better. The employee actually quit, began working for the firm's competitor, and salvaged the project once the firm crumbled! Yeah, that's a lot of information to take in, so let's start at the beginning.

The employee in question was working as a junior project manager for an engineering firm. They were good at their job, but their VP hated them. Why? No reason except jealousy. You know, the usual reasons your coworkers hate you. The VP began withholding work and promotions from the PM, which led to a variety of problems that you can read about below… I've gone to the trouble of scooping up all the juicy screenshots. When will management learn? The answer — probably never.

Then, check out this nurse who settled a score with her former coworker who had gotten her into trouble a whopping 6 years ago.
