>He’s here to take my job. The VP knows him and hired him directly. There’s so many signals each week that say I’m right.

In one situation for me, this was exactly the case. It became more clear as each week went by. It was a "bro" situation between the C-level and the new hire, and the C-level was a "30 under 30" so there was a high school mentality about it.

You can almost never win this situation, I have seen funded startups literally go under because of friendships and incorrect attribution of who did what.

		Ah, the true sign of a "team" - credit being apportioned... The problem isn't one person being over looked, it's that one person is being praised. We all make contributions that we feel are noteworthy, but when someone else's noteworthy contributions are highlighted we then have to ask, why theirs and not ours.
