My immediate supervisor in a mainstream company I worked for a couple of years ago threw me under the bus without a thought. For one I was constantly taking on more and more projects and working with every department without any kind of pay increase. I was in the process of selling my house and moving and was really stressed and overwhelmed. My supervisor called me in the office, told me to take the week off and take care of everything and how valuable and irreplacable I was to the department and company and to her. I took my week off and second day back got called into HR and told that by me taking off the week with no notification showed my priorities and the company was in transition and needed everyone to be on board 100% and I was demoted and would be let go in a month. Found out that the supervisor got called to the carpet for the shitty way she was running her department (she was hardly ever there) and threw me under the bus as the reason certain things werent done or done right, none of which I was even involved in. I was dumn enough to trust her so never double checked with HR to make sure she had cleared my week off with them. In their eyes I called out for the week with no prior notification. I am glad now I am no longer at that company, I have kept in touch with some people the work there and since they have restructured the place it has been a high stress hell hole. It hurt that someone that seemed to care about me personally and was "looking out" for me put me on the chopping block without hesitation.
I find it funny they eventually eliminated my position because everyone they hired kept quitting because they couldnt handle the work load and the stress. They ended up hiring 3 people to do what I was doing.
