One of my clients got pissed off at the slow pace of their projects, and decided to bring in a 3rd party "project partner". Tomorrow I'm having a "conversation" with Senior Leadership Team. I have a real bad feeling I'm about to be scapegoated for the failures of the project team because the project team manager is besties with my manager. I hate this feeling so fucking much.

I know exactly how that feels. We're here for you if you need it

I appreciate it man. Let's see how it plays out. It'd suck to be looking for a new job a few days before my birthday.

I'm OK money wise for a while, but I don't think I can do another 6 months without a job.

Let's hope things don't happen that fast. Even if they do, the job market is weirdly hot this time of year.

My boys' birthday is this Saturday as well so I get how you feel. I think you'll be able to ride it out until past Christmas
