Had a situation years ago (where I ended up getting fired).
As the title says, there was conflict between my bosses. My supervisor didn't want to have anything to do with the District Manager. So whenever the DM called, my supervisor handed me the phone to tell the DM my supervisor wasn't available.
Eventually the DM found out and came down to fire me and (I assume) temporarily demote my supervisor. When I gave a reason for my action to the DM, he only responded that my supervisor got me fired (and if I refused to do what the supervisor instructed me to do, he would have fired me sooner).
How about you? Have you ever encountered situations such as this?
