Big Slick here 👊 Got a story or need advice? Text me now — might make it on Talk Ya Sh!t! 🎙️💯

Ever been denied a promotion—then asked to train the person who got the job? That gut punch isn’t just disrespectful, it’s a warning sign. In this episode, Big Slick breaks down a listener’s story that exposes one of the most common workplace traps: unpaid training disguised as “shadowing.”

We unpack why being asked to train someone above your pay grade is about control, leverage, and free labor, not development. You’ll learn how vague language like “help them get up to speed” quietly expands your role while shrinking your value—and why teaching a higher position can actually put a target on your back.

This episode gives you real scripts and strategies to protect yourself:

• How to say no without burning bridges
• What to put in writing to define your role
• When to ask for extra pay or a formal trainer title
• How to spot when the issue isn’t skill—but politics, preference, or bias

We also lay out a step-by-step exit plan if it’s time to move on:
Keep your income while you interview. Update your resume with measurable wins. Secure off-platform references. Create a paper trail that protects your reputation. And when the right offer comes, leave clean—with momentum intact.

If they want your knowledge but not your promotion, that’s your signal to level up elsewhere.
