So you always quit when asked to train someone? The reason Employer plays along in the beginning is so you don't realize Steve will be your replacement until it has already happened. Besides that, some people will need to continue working as they search for another job, and training Steve could be parlayed into a rudimentary supervisory position on the resume. That helps if you ever intend to jump over to the developer-manager track. Q: "Have you ever had anyone under you?" A: "Yes. I was in charge of a trainee once." Q: "How did that work out?" A: "Great, until they gave him my old job, then fired me. Maybe we had a budget problem?"
