I won’t let the door hit me on the way out!

Exit DoorIf I am ever fired from my job, it will not be for some over the top behavior. Not screaming at people at work or even inappropriate jokes. No, I will be fired over a printer! There is an attachment to printers like nothing else. I am in charge of them and the plan is to eliminate all the personal printer and move to multifunctional centers. For some reason, everyone believes they deserve a printer on their desk and if I even move the printer in their area one cubical away it is a personal attack. Everyone has a reason why they are special, everyone has a boss who thinks they are special, and I get to be the person to tell them they are not. I don’t want to be mean, I am not trying to ruin their day, I am just doing my job. The problem comes when a VP goes to my boss and says I want something, it really depends on if my boss will hold to the plan with me, or throw me under the bus. Either way, I am the bad guy and looking for the HR rep to walk into my cube. The likelihood is greater today since the department I upset today was HR.
