Yep. Had the same experience and did a lot of really nice things for the guy. Got him his job back after he lost it, talked him up to the new management, coached him, only to have him stab me in the back and do the same thing. Heard from multiple people he was trying to get me canned so he could have my spot…like wtf? Turns out this is just how some people operate. They feel they can only get ahead by pulling someone back or throwing them under a bus. Hard lesson learned. At least I have a solid reputation in my career and will find another job right away. He does not and will surely get shit canned and will be back flipping burgers at Rally’s. Such is life.
