You need to look at it from every potential view in order to make a rational decision.

Right now you are playing chess from only one side of the board.

I'm not trying to get down on you, really. I'm really am trying to offer helpful advice.

I've seen this stuff way too many times and you'd be surprised at the kind of stuff that really goes down at the end of the day.
I realize that my POV is limited. I also don't view this as a competition. To do so at this point would be a little presumptuous on my part. It would not surprise me in the least if my boss already has someone in mind from a different team. It's just that once the team lead leaves, that leaves just me an him on the team, and he doesn't have as broad knowledge of what the team does as I do.

I'm also not out to "get" anyone. I just want a tolerable working relationship, nothing more. Screaming tirades, erratic behavior, and hidden agendas don't facilitate that.

It really doesn't matter what happens, as any outcome will necessarily lead to me working closer with this guy. I want these issues to be resolved before hand.
