I would certainly leave again - I'm really surprised that this happened to you twice, but any reasonable company would respect your wishes rather than forcing you into a role you never asked to do. It doesn't sound like you did anything wrong based on your description of the events.
- reluctantly 4y agoI was kind of amazed when it had happened again, I was less experienced the first time. The second time with new company I was abundantly clear from day 1.
- yuppie_scum 4y agoFool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..
- hiptobecubic 4y ago... can't get fooled again? The answer, as always, is to tell them what you want and walk if you care enough about getting it that you'd rather work elsewhere than stay without it.
- drc500free 4y agoWould they have fired you if you said no?
- reluctantly 4y agoI don't know, but probably not immediately at least given the situation of not having a manager. If I was fully prepared to quit/be fired in response, I wouldn't be asking HN for advice, because quitting is obviously one option to exit the role.
