You missed the part where you'll be required to train and explain the entire business to your new manager. Every doc you've written, every PowerPoint, and you'll need to sit by his or her side at meetings and cover for any technical or knowledge gaps.
Oh, and most of those docs and slides will be modified and marked up to make the business look better than ever. They'll probably even promise better goals for the years ahead since things are going so great.
And, right about the time those goals are due, your new manager will be promoted upward and outward...leaving you to hold the wreckage and explain to the board why you didn't make the goals promised by their up-and-coming superstar.
