I was pushed out of a non-union federal job for reasons beyond my control. They were threatening to develop a disciplinary case, or I could choose to leave on my own terms. They gave me a few months of gardening leave plus let me use a couple months of accrued annual leave. I could try to fight them, but it would’ve ended up at MSPB and a public record easily available on Google. Most people lose at MSPB and I would have needed to hire an attorney. Not worth the fight or bad publicity.

I ended up moving to another agency before my leave ran out and within 6 months of leaving my former job I had increased my comp by 40%. Best thing that ever happened to me. It really turbo charged my career. [/quote]

I was stabbed in the back by my previous employer in an at-will position. Had zero negative feedback about my job performance my entire time. Basically zero feedback at all.

Then my boss tells me at my review how horrible I've done in my position and that I have 30 days to shape up or ship out. As everyone knows, 30 days is just a prerequisite for firing. You don't have a prayer. There was absolutely nothing about my job performance that couldn't have been corrected with some feedback and some time.

Instead, my drain-circling previous employer pushed me out the door to make my boss, who can't see his penis when he pees, feel better.[/quote]
