Q My boss thinks I'm incompetent. But I've already improved my performance in a short period of time. I believe he'll do everything to force me out of a job. It's hard for me to look for another job because of my high pay package. What do you think? - Lucy

Forced Resignation

A There is more credit and satisfaction in being a first-rate domestic helper than a tenth-rate executive. If you can't turn your situation around, then it's best to cut, and to cut cleanly.

Seek out a replacement job soon, and don't mind the pay. What is important is keeping your integrity intact. But before you leave, negotiate for a separation package that will help you while you're between jobs. Try to get an impressive package and a written statement about your work accomplishment, if not a recommendation.

If you want to fight back, you will need the best labor lawyer you can find. This way, you can wangle a little more from your boss, who may do anything to sever the employment relationship.
