        Eh, not necessarily. Higher skill jobs tend to be harder to replace, especially if you’re really good at something specific to the company you work for.

        It’s hard to get there any maybe not worth it (my comment was a bit tongue in cheek, like “don’t be unattractive”).

      I consider someone being hard to replace as a problem that may or may not be their fault. If they’re actively hoarding knowledge and skills, it’s better to bite the bullet.

      Personally, I try to make myself unnecessary in my roles by empowering my people. If they can’t operate without me being arbitrarily absent for a month, I’ve fucked up.
