On a scale of asshole to normal person, if a person in the job position you'd be most eligible for informs the team that he's leaving at the end of the year, how wrong of it is to immediately wonder if you could have his job?

If this person leaves voluntarily, I don't see how that would make you an asshole, at all.

They're leaving voluntarily and on good terms for another job, so thanks! Good to know!

That's pretty much just life. People around here don't even wait for someone to leave before they start angling for jobs.

Ok, sweet. Thanks for the affirmation. I will definitely be talking to my boss about what the application process will be like

In this job climate? I say, 'Go for it'!

[jujuberry136]

Thanks for the advice!

As long as he's not leaving for some horrible reason, I don't see any problem with it.

[jujuberry136]

Nope, he's leaving happily for another job. Thanks for the advice!

I think that's perfectly normal and smart. Always be thinking ahead. There's nothing wrong with that.

Thanks for the reassurement!
