> And that is a reason to turn yourself into indispensable cog, not the best replaceable there is.
For centuries, organizations have been adjusting themselves to ensure that all employees are as easily replaceable as they could possibly be, not to mention outright powerless.
I recommend watching the Netflix documentary "American Factory". If I recall correctly, there's a low-level manager who tried to turn himself indispensable at the expense of the company's workers and he showed a lot of surprise once he himself was fired.
"Indispensable" people leave for greener pastures or get laid off anyways. This happens all the time. A company that has too many indispensable people is a company that has too many single points of failure.
