    Backstabbing Permie Staff: Revenge or keep it professional

    I'm working with this permie who in the last 3 months have be sold jealous of my abilities that he's been engineering to get rid of me from my current contract post, which I been at for the last year and a half.

    The (Permie) or the Hippo in question:
    - Eliminated my chances of going perm.
    - Undermine my abilities to our manager, thereby making me look that I'm not good at my job.
    - Undermine my abilities to other other stakeholders, face to face, on conference calls and via emails.
    - Hidden key emails from me by not CC me in. So it took me longer to learn about these business processes.
    - Push another permie off the project because that person hated working with him.

    Although I can save some of my reputation to address the issues, it looks like he's finally got his wish and I get this feeling in my last month that my contract will not get renewal for another 3months by our manager.

    I have two weeks left in my current role, loads of knowledge and applications have been built or documented by me to address the current project and to help the project through 2012.

    Where possible, I've put my name on the applications to prevent him from passing the applications as his or the documents that I've written too.

    QUESTION: Should one remain profession and leave it as learning experience or would one person serve up REVENGE on the backstabber permie who looks like a HIPPO.

    TBH, I would not know how to serve up REVENGE...

    What would you do in my situation? or

    I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

            Kick him in the <mod snip> shins </mod snip>?

            At nearly all clients I have always found someone who is quite "anti-contractor" and vocal about it. They then spend duration of the gig trying to make any contractor look stupid in front of senior management, or even refuse to work with or talk to them. Got so bad at one site, a permie guy had his pride and joy sports car keyed quite badly.

            This country.

            I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

              Absoluted! HIPPO not succum to unprofession. Do not be hestiate! Act straight forward and all will be revealed.

                Stay professional, you'll end up looking better out of it when you leave.

                Am in had a similar situation, where I thought it was best to go.

                  ...

                  Best advice I can give is go and learn some basic language skills.

                  You may be surprised and find that far from hating you, the hippo actually has a crush on you and wants your babies.

                    It's always more satisfying to watch somebody fall into a grave that they dug themselves.

                    Do nothing.
