If you have not already seen the fourth season of Chuck, I hope you have enjoyed my recent Chuck posts. Perhaps, I have peeked your interest in the show? I have been a huge Chuck fan since season one and enjoy sharing this with you.
The Replacements
In episode 18, Sarah worries that the CIA is replacing them with Casey’s extremely efficient team, but Chuck considers himself irreplaceable with the Intersect.
Like Sarah, I have experienced some similar worries. For many years I worked in the telecom industry. Although I worked in a sought after position, there was constant worry that our jobs would be sent abroad. Most of the Internet department had
already been relocated to places like India and the Philippines, where workers are very educated and willing to work for much less. It was troublesome having this possibility always looming. Especially since I had not yet obtained an advanced degree, limiting my potential in today’s job market. I wish I had been more like Chuck, considering myself irreplaceable. Fortunately, I was able to get my time in and left the company on my own terms.
Have you ever felt like you were in jeopardy of being replaced? Has there ever been a time where you have been made to feel outdated. If so, how did you remedy the situation? Did it end well?
