Boss Texts Employee After Hours to Accuse Her of Faking a Covid Test, Employee Epically Calls Her Out and Quits Effectively Immediately


The work environment is changing. With millennials and Gen-Z taking it over, nobody is letting the f*ckery go anymore. Employees have taken enough crap and won't stand for it anymore. 

 

TikToker Libbylu aka @libbiiiii quit her job earlier this year. Her boss was toxic and the entire workplace was soul sucking. It didn't even matter if she was good at her job, she was younger and lower in the ranks, so she didn't deserve anybody's respect—especially the respect of her boss. She had already found a new job and couldn't wait for the transition! She was getting ready to give her courtesy two weeks notice, because she was at least a kind employee. However, her boss really yanked that privileged out from her own hands. 

 

Libby got a text well after closing time from her boss. It was, of course, bursting with toxicity. Her boss texted her because she had come in late that day after a Covid scare. She decided to get a text before coming in just to be safe. The boss accused her of lying about it and demanded proof. Even though she was annoyed she still sent over a screen shot of her testing results to her boss. Even with that proof, her boss still did no believe her. She said that she called the testing place and they said they did not provide Covid testing services and she demanded a physical copy of her test results for her to believe her. 

 

Libby had f****ing had, I mean, who wouldn't at this point?? She let her have a piece of her mind. She called out her boss for being toxic and unprofessional. She sent in a lengthy text everything that her boss has been doing that was simply toxic and inappropriate as a manger. At this point, Libby decided she was no longer going to provide any sort of handy two weeks notice for her toxic boss. She quit "effective immediately" right after sending that epic text. The boss apparently responding denying all her employee's accusations, but Libby had already had it and ended the conversation. She had said her peace and was wiping her hands clean of that toxic job

"No Snack" Rule Technicality Snafu Drives Worker to Quit Pedantic Boss


A worker was ridiculed by their boss for eating half a sandwich at their desk, which supposedly violated the boss's silly "Snacks only, no meals" rule regarding food in the office. This was the snack that broke the camel's back, and the incident drove the worker to quit.

We should get this tattooed at this point but as the old saying goes… "People don't quit jobs, they quit horrible bosses."

The thread was shared to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit yesterday where it went massive and received just shy of 20k upvotes in the first twelve hours it was posted. The thread was posted with the title "I just quit my job of 3 years over a sandwich." 

Commenters voiced their rancorous disdain for the manager's policy and cheered the poster for their decisive reaction to the manager's behavior. Some encouraged further antagonizing of the boss while others passed comments on various aspects of the story. 

"Keep eating sandwiches at your desk during your notice period," DizzyDizzyWiggleBop slyly remarked.

"The only reason managers want you back in the office instead of WFH is to justify their own jobs. If WFH means you are happier, more productive and saving time and money on the commute then clearly the only reason to return to the office is so managers have more control and can shout at you more," dbe14 commented, referring to the growing friction between employers and employees due to requirements that workers to return to office buildings.

"Doesn't want people to eat at their desks and wants them to eat in a break room. Overloads them with work, so they can't take a break. Genius. Good luck with your new job!" Voiced elamb127.

"Treats full grown adults like children for no reason. That's the number one reason to leave. Cool, we have a difference in definitions, I get that. But I am also a grown up and competent human being. Treating me like a child is unacceptable and says a lot about the manager and how they view their staff." added Sptsjunkie in response to elamb127's comment.

Viral Thread: Boss Fires Confused Employee Via Email, Twenty Minutes After Closing With Them


An employee closed with their manager, who said nothing out of the ordinary to them but sent an email 20 minutes later telling them that they were being let go from their position. Further, the email tries to claim implied confidentiality and bans the employee from attending any of the owner's establishments as a customer. The cowardly method used to dismiss the employee has the internet up in arms. 

Screenshots of the email were posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by Redditor u/Leading_Highlight244, the employee who received the post. They posted the thread with the title "This is how my manager fired me, 20 minutes after I left my shift with him."

The original poster (OP) elaborated on their situation in the comments.

"For context, I've worked there for a whole month. I was never sent the Safe Serv course (and, I also had already submitted a different responsible serving certificate and they denied it)," they wrote.

"And my "results" are completely unknown to me because their metrics are ridiculous. They're a dive bar who serves paninis, and if you don't sell a certain number per day then I guess you're fired? Sorry nobody wants to spend $8 on a Turkey sandwich with two slices of processed Turkey on it lmao."

Reader's reactions in the comments generally passed commentary on the various ridiculous parts of the message, with others offering their sympathies or sharing stories of their own.

"Boy that "confidential do not distribute" text worked well," remarked 747ER in the top-voted comment, commenting on the fact that the "confidential" email was now the subject of a viral thread.

"'Confidential do not distribute' (and) 'please refrain from coming to any location in the future' sound like challenges," commented herbalit.

"They banned your ass from all establishments too?? Damn," sympathized LuckyxCapone.

 There are lots of stories floating around these days about people getting fired. Sometimes they take matters into their own hands, like this employee who took all of their things home and left a company nonfunctional


 

Bridal Shower Bikini Brings Bristling Tensions to Family Affair


This volatile r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) thread has been a topic of hot discussion and disagreement, with readers ultimately deciding that the original poster (OP), u/Complex-Cup7367, was in the wrong for his reaction to the described events.

The OP describes in his post that he and his longtime girlfriend have recently been engaged and, as part of the wedding proceedings, had arranged a bridal shower. As a good gesture, OP's Father's much-disliked girlfriend "Tiffany" was invited. As a possible slight or trashy oversight, "Tiffany" wore a bikini to the affair, pictured in the thumbnail and images below. The thing is, the bridal shower was a garden party, and all of the other guests were wearing sundresses or similar. So is there really anything wrong with what "Tiffany" wore? The image OP provided proves that the bikini is less bikini and more summer wear than anything else. 

Many voters in the Reddit thread wouldn't have seen the photo before voting. But with this information in hand. What's your vote? Who is in the wrong here? Is "Tiffany" the a-hole for wearing this? Is the fiancé an a-hole for defending her? Or has the bride lost her mind?

Upon seeing the photo, this is what one reader had to say…

"You're kidding," remarked General-Yak-3741, responding to another reader declaring that the OP was in the wrong. "That makes his fiancée the giant ah in my opinion. OP states that the women all wore sun dresses to this "garden party" I don't see the issue here."

Without a doubt, some people have trouble behaving and conforming to proper event attire. Such as Heather here who insisted on wearing a psuedo-wedding dress to her half-sister's engagement party.
