I have been hinting to my manager for 6-9 months that he needs to move part of my workload elsewhere so that I can focus and actually achieve something. To think, all it took was for me to tell him straight that I was unhappy and unfulfilled to the point that I was considering resigning. Suddenly he's all apologies and let's make changes because you're kind of vital and we don't want to lose you.

And I was fired for it. Depends on the market demand I suppose, some industries there is no denying your worth, in others you're disposable.

I love the fact that firing me what the person you're answering mentioned is illegal here.

Peace of mind.

Yeah pretty outrageous, I soon found out employment rights in Ontario Canada are practically useless. I had no idea, I thought I had some basic protections, it's almost nothing.
