There was an individual I fondly refer to as only “The A**hole” who caused everyone an unbelievable amount of unnecessary stress and confusion. I took calm and pleasant satisfaction the day he got fired, a year after he screwed me over. The Kosmic Karma Kredit plan is a wonderful thing, even though it takes a while to do its work.

I have one person who I would never, ever work for again. But at the same time, I missed the company that I was working for. I liked the job and the majority of the staff.
She just made a very terrible person in the position she was in. For this position after five years I walked out, four other staff members did the next day as well.
I have no real suggestions other I tend to try to avoid them as much as possible. Keep it simple when I have to and cover my tracks.

Jen - your plan is a GREAT suggestion for someone working independently and bidding for a project or contract. I wish it worked in corporate jobs too!

I got this advice from my uncle: If there is someone you don’t want to work with again, price yourself out of their range so there is no bad blood. They either won’t be able to afford you anymore, or they will pay you enough to be worth your while.
