It is described in this video.
I didn't watch the video, but knowing your threads I'm assuming she's a prostitute?
No, but treat your boss like one, even if it's behind his/her back. Take maximum advantage and give as little as possible to keep the paycheck coming in.
That is a miserable way to live, leaving things better than you found them (or at least trying) is much more rewarding.

Or your union mates will give you a lashing...I have been through that....I needed to be taught that it was not the quality of the work that matters.There's a time and place for that, where it's appreciated. Namely, user groups and Github as well as Kaggle. Mentor others and they will vouch for your skills. Don't give a credit stealing boss anything worth stealing. Furthermore, if you stand out, your boss will feel threatened and want to get rid of you.

I stay with my statement none the less.

Must have been different than my union. Standing out is working great for me!

Agreed, yet there are so many that do pretty much exactly the 'pump and dump'. What's really funny is that while they are there, they are the greatest thing / person around. Once they are gone, and their lack of quality is discovered, they are just silently dropped from any conversation.
Exactly. If you're not rewarded for good effort:
- you are working for the wrong people
- you are deluding yourself that you made a good effort
Same as the guy above, I didn't watch the vid, but I do appreciate the summary.
I can say that I have done this type of thing more than once over the years in my career. But, rather than call it pump and dump, I just thought of it as being passive aggressive.
I've always understood what I bring to the table and expect to be compensated accordingly.
More than once I've taken a job that doesn't pay enough contingent on getting what I want when I proved I was worth it. Never took more than a couple of months. Usually management in under 6.
I did peter pan my way to almost 50, but I would not advise others to do so. Its not easy and can screw you if you don't "grow up" before retirement time.
Sure was fun though, and it looks like I pulled off my plan to do my "retirement" time when I was young enough to enjoy it and still be OK in retirement.

I call that sad actually....that the BS all too often works....that playing politics well is all to often about the only thing that matters.
OK, Sad then. Interesting to note that those in leadership and management positions don't seem to notice or take note until its already too late.
Another sad thing is how little institutional knowledge and experience is valued.
More than a few times I've seen good people who know the ropes and how to get things in the organization done, are seemingly casually dismissed, their talents, knowledge and experience lost to the organization, only to have the person(s) who take over their responsibilities have to start from square one and re-develop that institutional knowledge and experience before becoming effective, only to be the next victim to be casually dismissed.
I think this a recurring theme and occurrence in corporations.

Just curious. Are you in tech?
