The $150k Bug
Language: en
My salary is $60k. I accidentally glanced at the pay stub of a new hire in my team, impressively printed with $150k. I didn't say anything, continued to teach him hand in hand, fix bugs for him, help him report to the boss. He relied on my results to get the quarterly bonus, high-spirited in the meeting. End of year renewal, HR smiled and said to me: "Young people should look at the future, don't care too much about gains and losses." I pushed my resignation letter in front of her. Next day, the core project responsible by the whole department, system backend went directly red.
