[quote=Anonymous]My boss and I have had this conversation, it's weird, but he's totally supportive. In fact he asked for a junior staffer of ours for his resume for an opening in one of our member companies (we're a smallish trade association).

I'm their lobbyist and he knows I won't be here forever, and he can't pay me much more than I currently make.

In fact, he's offered to be my reference if it's between me and somebody else.

It's creepy, but pretty genuine. Believe me, I'm like everyone else and think I'm about to get fired. In fact, funny story, I had to perform a webinar, totally outside my comfort zone and area of expertise. Our comms guys really screwed it up (not me) and he was visibly pissed.

I went out to lunch with him, our HR person and the other person that I know he's used to witness previous firings right after (yeah, we've shit-canned people before, so there's precedent). I thought I was getting axed right then and there.

I felt like Maury from Goodfellas...more like Fredo, he knew it was coming, Maury never did...[/quote]
