A couple weeks ago, my boss announced that she was advertising for the position which I and 11 others currently hold. As we had been previously told that due to the budget, we were capped at 12 employees, we all immediately freaked out-- Who's quitting? Is someone getting fired?? After we all shut up, my boss said nobody was quitting, nobody was getting fired and she wasn't going to hire anyone. She simply wanted to "test the waters" and see what kind of candidates are out there. It sounded fishy and since she offered no additional information we've all been feeling uneasy. I was mentally preparing myself because my review is coming up next and I was sure it was me who was getting fired. But today, one of my co-workers announced that she was resigning. Her husband got a job in another state. She had told the boss in advance that it was a possibility, thus the advertisement. I feel much better now. Phew!
