One time I got a “promotion” at work. I knew it was coming as I did training etc. A manager comes to me and asks to speak privately. He tells me that 1. Here is your new title and salary 2. He is retiring on Monday (this was a Wednesday).
It took about 9 months to replace him. My only assigned duty in that time was to every 2 weeks go into a backroom, log into about a dozen computers than log out. This was because the computers were backups and after 30 days without logging in they would be kicked off the network.
This was a 10 minute task every 2 weeks. That’s it. It was horrible. I was bored out of my mind. There were several other issues. I literally was going to other people asking “what can I help you with”…
