A man who joined the company as a new graduate was told by the incoming president on his first day, “I had no intention of hiring you.” He then worked there for exactly four years and resigned the moment his appointment as president was decided.
A man who joined the company as a new graduate was briefed by the personnel department on his first day about the circumstances surrounding his hiring. The company is said to have hired 4 people at the time.
He was later told in an interview, “I hired you because the president said it was okay. So do your best,” reportedly because he shared the same surname as the incoming president. That was when he learned that the person in question would become president in the future.
The man wrote in his post that he decided, “I’ll quit the moment he becomes president,” and that he continued to face persistent harassment within the company. After working there for exactly four years, he resigned the moment the incoming president’s appointment was decided.
This article is based on a personal account submitted to Career Connection News and describes the case as an example of a “second-generation successor” at a family-run small or medium-sized company.
