I'm concerned that my present employer will give me bad references
Q. I'm concerned that my present employer will give me bad references.
A. While you're still working and looking for another job, tell prospective employers not to contact your present employer for references, because they'll fire you if they find out you're looking. Many hiring decisions have to be made without talking to the candidate's current employer for this very reason.

Is it a good conduct for your colleagues to report each and every little mistake/misunderstanding that you make/have to the boss behind your back?
