[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 351548, member: 57984"] When I tried to escape from a job I'd had for several years due to ghastly on site politics, my evil but clever overlords went to great lengths to prevent me from getting another job. They wanted to keep me there so they could destroy me there. I didn't want to throw in the towel and let them win. But given what was done to me, how it was done and whom was involved, I frankly wasn't sure what to do about it that would [I]work[/I]. And given personal issues I was dealing with outside the office, and to avoid yet another scheme to get me fired (or arrested) I deided to leave without another job lined up. But they're all dead now, so it's fine. The legal department protected me -- probably to prevent lawsuits against the agency as opposed to sympathy for me, but they realized I was being targeted. Eventually, the healthiest thing I could do was just walk and allow the cowchips to fall where they may. But that's not easy for many people to do. I was lucky in that I had other resources which permitted me to make the jump, albeit under duress.
