We are the only two that know how to do this job, and now I will be the only one.

This feels like the ultimate job security.

They're going to hire someone better than the last guy and replace you.

Feels good man. I can do whatever the fuck I want at work just short of burning the place down or assaulting anyone because no one else can do my job.

I just got a $10,000 raise and an opportunity for a $30,000 bonus if I stay another 2.5 years (though I have no obligation to stay, it's just an incentive)

I don't think there's any real reason to twist his arm when he's down

Fat chance, this is a specialized industry where you only really learn by being in it, pretty unlikely for him to find a better engineer

One thing that sucks is that I get to adopt all of his projects, but I'm not going to work any harder
