Getting someone else’s job


I'm pretty bad at interviews. Easily flustered. That's if I even get an interview as I'm too damn honest when applying. I hadn't come across one thing and I was knocked back loads of times because I didn't answer yes to it. Turned out when I had to use it in a job it took a couple of hours to sort out.

I've just completed 10 years at my place and now have to work with two feckless and lazy idiots. The feckless I could probably put up with. It annoys me intensely that these two managed to con their way into the role. I can't help but think there's people out there like me who don't interview well who would be far better at getting on with the job.

My advice would be to take the opportunity. If you don't there's a chance it will end up with a complete gobshite who has bull shitted his way in life and you and your colleagues will end up having to carry them for years.

I'm exactly the same as you & share your frustrations
 
I’m in a dilemma.

I have been offered a promotion in my company but it’s to replace someone and they will be offered my job (demotion). It’s not secret he is struggling in the role, but I don’t think they’ve spoken to him about wanting to demote him.

He’s not in my team but we work along side each other, so he won’t be reporting to me but we have direct links daily. The offer come out of the blue as I was happy doing what I’m doing. However since they put the idea in my head I’m very interested.

I feel like a piece of shit because it feels slimy but on the other hand he’s not performing and if not me it’ll be someone else.

What would you do?
If he's struggling he might see it as a relief.
 
I’d hazard a guess that if you don’t accept the role he’ll still be demoted so what difference does it make if you accept it?
this ^^^^ i'ts not as if you did turn the offer down the firm would keeps him where he is , he's a dead man walking whatever....if you do take it and he says anything to you just tell him if it wasn't you it would have been someone else because you were getting demoted anyhow,then twat him !.

I'd have sex every day. But you can't always get what you want.
 
Sounds like he's got no-one but himself to blame so take the job and don't give it a second thought.
Oh and shit in his knicker draw.
