Cutting corners

Today, my boss sent me a Word document that he wanted me to make into a PowerPoint presentation for him. It was a set of proposals for the board of directors about cost-saving options. The third option was to eliminate my position in the company. FML

Just leave that option off of the PowerPoint...

Start applying at other places, and then if you land another job soon you can just quit :) I can't even imagine how you felt when you saw that, though. FYL. :(

Brush up your resume, OP, and be glad you got a warning.

Save costs by doing less editing, who needs that pesky 3rd option? It's just more to edit anyway

Change that slide to suggest a reduction in his salary. Because no matter what, once that idea is planted, it cannot be removed.

Put his name and position down under 2 options 1. Taking a cut in pay Or 2. Making he position redundant What a bloody idiot

Sounds like Ron Swanson! :) (you get the joke, I love you)

A not so subtle hint that your boss doesn't like you

Email the PP presentation to him with a list (in the email) of reasons why option 3 is not the preferred option.
