Well, my former boss is known for being a “problematic person,” not the Rude kindda person, who screams, and insults, but the kindda person who manipulates, always has the opposite opinion to the majority, who have had negative opinions from people of the same rank and subordinates.

Also, I take responsibility for what I did:

For all the above, I then began to take my time, if I was already the last to leave, I started to clear myself talking to my colleagues time to time, to go out and smoke a couple of times and arrive 10 or 15 minutes later than usual (also taking into account that the official entry time was at 8 and my boss could arrive until 10, then he made us arrive at 10 and, therefore, leave later), but always finishing my job; things that did not seem to my boss and he started complaining about them. Exit negotiations turned hostile

I indeed start talking to my colleagues in working hours, I go out to smoke sometimes and I said exit negotiations turned hostile, from both sides.

That’s exactly it! It’s a good job, in a dream government institution in my country, with good payment (maybe long working hours), but overall is a good job. I just had the bad luck to be with a shitty manager.

Also, salaries are shit in my country, you can’t even afford a room in an apartment and food at the same time with your first post-graduation job as a lawyer, so losing that job is a big loss.

Tidal seems to be a pretty good alternative.

Also, you can use some FOSS alternatives like SimpMusic, InnerTune (or some fork), ViMusic (or a fork).

For PC you can use the FOSS YouTube Music alternative.

I talk to a boss of the boss of my former boss hahaha and he told me that he can help me and that it is possible indeed, but the comments of my former boss are crucial; if I don’t have negative comments about me from my former boss, he can -for sure- get me my job back. He knows that I deliver a great work, that’s why he will be willing to help me.

Last time my former boss and I talked, we said to each other that everything is in good terms, but I think it was more of a superficial thing than a real thing.

So it’s a possibility!

My former boss has previously had problems with other lawyers (both subordinates and those within her hierarchy). My colleagues and other bosses also know me and my work, and have good references about me.

Because of the institution’s rules. I entered to the job by recommendation and I know a few people that trust my job in that institution. I know a boss of the boss of my former boss hahaha (who works in the main headquarter of the institution) and he told me that I need “the go-ahead” from my former boss so that he can help me get my job back. I need to say that this person is someone that I knew from when I was an intern so our relationship is only about work. He will help me because he trust my job, knows that I deliver a good work.
