* You find your job advertised online
* Your boss asks you to write standard operating procedures for everything you do
* Your day-to-day tasks slowly start getting reassigned to other people (or you’re asked to train others on how to do them ‘just in case’)
* You’re not being invited to meetings that you used to be included in


What You Should Do About It

Schedule time on your boss’s calendar to speak with him or her. If they ask what the meeting is about, say that you are seeking guidance about an issue that is better addressed face to face than electronically. You don’t want to give your boss time to prepare for this conversation. You’re more likely to receive candid answers this way. If your boss has the ability to prepare for this discussion then you will probably receive canned, HR approved answers.

Once in the meeting with your boss: State that you are seeing signs that people typically associate with getting fired and that you would like your boss to clarify the situation for you. Now be quiet. Let silence be your weapon. If you’re anything like me, this will be the hardest part. But it will be well worth it. Just sit there and wait for their response. Be prepared for one of three of answers:

You are getting fired. They may give you a timeframe, or they could ask you to leave on the spot. If they do give you a timeframe and you want to stay, ask if it’s a performance related issue. If it is, try to negotiate being put on a performance improvement plan.

You may not be getting fired. The company is advertising because they hear that you are looking for employment elsewhere, or because they feel like your workload is too much for one person and they want to add another member to the team. Keep in mind that your boss may or may not be telling the truth.

You’re probably not getting fired. The department is pipelining because they plan on promoting you but want to have your successor lined up first. Could this also be a fib? That’s a pretty bold-faced lie if it is, and it could carry legal ramifications in some states.

No matter what your boss’s answer is, take the time to think before you reply. Make sure that your response is honest. If the company is firing you, do not say something that will burn this bridge. You should leverage this moment to ask your boss if he or she will be a positive reference for you during your job search. This is also a good time to lay the groundwork for future severance package negotiations.

We’ve all been there.

What red flags have you seen before getting terminated?

Did you address the situation?

I’m excited to read your thoughts in the comments section!

I love this write up. At least I know what to do when that time comes.

getting fired means you ain't good enough... if you damn good, you make the rules not your boss

Correct op. That was how my boss asked me write out SOP after I had reconfigured the factory plant layout not knowing that he planned to bring his relative to take over. God pass am cos I left without giving him both the hard and soft copy. I fired my self. No doubt. Greedy bosses

If someone has made up his mind to fire you, what's the point of talking again. Just leave. Find your own destiny and be your own boss

I can imagine, God will surely help you. But do watch yourself and make sure you don't have other performance issues someone who already wants to victimize you would latch onto.

AntiWailer:

Forget that thing in a work environment where politics is the name of the game an asset could very well be fired. I have seen it happen sometimes it's not about how good you are but who doesn't like you at management level.
