Jerk Boss Refuses to Accept Data Management Worker's Resignation, Tells Him He Can't Leave

What insane power trip is this boss on? Does he seriously think he can just order his workers not to quit? That's not employment, there's another word for that.

This guy seriously thinks that he is a feudal lord and all of his serfs are dependent on him for life or death. That guilt trip of "how could you leave and do this to your coworkers" is so indicative of an abusive relationship manipulation tactic. There are too many red flags to count here.

He's probably trying to convince him to stay while he finds a replacement secretively. Then once he does he won't hesitate to let u/kaihoneck go.

We've been seeing a few stories like this lately. This rings a lot of the same bells as the Karen boss who wouldn't let her employee quit and left to go shopping for the day instead.
