What would you do if your boss is thinking of firing you?

Answer 1

To be honest, my recommendation is to start looking for a new job, in your spare time. Get a resume together and start answering ads, asking people you know (outside of work) if they know of any jobs, etc. The old cliche that it's easier to find a job when you already have one, is absolutely true. It would be great if you could do a teriffic job and convince your boss not to let you go. Maybe you can sit down with him or her and have a frank discussion, so you understand the situation from his point of view. Mabe you can improve the situation enough so you won't get fired. But, my experience is that the best time to start looking for a new job is the first time you think your current job might be in jeopardy.
