Software developers are used to being docile, but in oder industries being brave is a virtue. She’d make an excellent lawyer or leader. I dont understand why fellow workers are so angry at her if not the fear and terror at being in her shoes. Anxiety is common among keyboard operators. Watching this video is a great tutorial on how to change that.

Nothing she did helped her find a new job, nor did it help her keep her old job.

I think the term is "pissing into the wind".

I mean youre wrong. Anyone worth their salt is going to see that she clearly laid out what she was doing right, how fast in a 3 month time period she was ramping up to the product and had already made inroads with her customers. You want sales people who are that assertive.
