Isn't it strange how if your work steals from you, they don't go to jail? When this dude found out that his boss had no intention of making good on an agreement, and blamed the employees for a problem he himself created, everyone got fed up and decided to finally make it the boss's problem. And it became a pretty big problem. For some more justice, here's the employee who had their vacation messed with and resigned while their boss lost money hand over fist.

    Font - Posted by u/Log_Leader 1 day ago 55 3 2 Made my ex-boss loss - 25,000 on his salary I use to work at a Wendy's as a manager. It was already a crappy job, but my general manager was nice, and most employees were easy to deal with. All this started when I was already working -65hr/week. I was offered a $100 bonus to work one of my only days off. I decided to do it, and later that week. Before I had even been paid I was asked to come in again. I said this time I would like $150 as at this po

    Font - Cut forward 3 weeks, I've been asking about my money for a while now. I am told by my general manager that I could speak to my district manager as he would be in later that night. The conversation goes like me:"hey, do you know what's going on with the bonus? I'm owed $250 with both the days" district manager: "well, that's why I came here. The store has been having trouble making money." So, basically he's telling me that my performance isn't good enough. At this point I'm working dinner

    Font - and other friend that has grown close. district manager: "your shift isn't making as much money as others, and your drive time is higher" Me: "well, we are doing all we can. It takes extra time when we only have half the number of people with the same amount of customers." district manager: "that's really no excuse." Me: "when am I going to receive my bonus?" My dm was a very sheepish man(pu. y) so he is very obviously scared when he tells me this. district manager: "we can not give you a

    Font - A day passes, I've had time to collect myself and speak to my entire crew. Everyone agrees to walk out with me. So I call my district manager. The phone starts to ring but then it cuts off. He declined my call. So I called him again, and again and again. Finally I just leave him a voicemail. Me: "look, Jakob you need to talk to me, you have until 8:45 to call me back or all of night crew is done." At this point it is 7:30. I go into my office and start watching my bosses email.

    Font - This idiot put my name on the email. So of course I read it. Long story short, in the email, it was him trying to make sure my general manager was going to be ready to go to work. Aka: he wasn't going to call me or give me my money, so I get all my people together and we walk out leaving everything out all the meat all the toppings, the fryer. Everything.

    Font - The next day I turn in my keys. About a week later I'm called by my brother. Me: “ what's up." Brother: "Jacob lost all off his stores. He has to go back to Indiana." My brother worked at the store as well. If you don't know, district manager's pay is based on the amount of stores they have and how much they make. When he moved to Indiana his wages got reduced for 65,000 to around- 40,000. All this for $250.
