Company Tells Woman She is Replaceable, She Starts Her Own Business and Makes Them the Replaceable Ones

The classic "You are replaceable." power play. It has to be one of the oldest tricks in the book. In fact, I'm willing to bet that if we consulted that 3,200-year-old Egyptian attendance list it would probably have some glyphs somewhere on it describing that, "Ramses the stone shaper asked for a raise today, I told him he was replaceable." Even if the supervisor knew full bloody well that nobody could shape a stone like Ramses could.

It might be a tale as old as time but, sadly, a lot of companies would rather cut their nose to spite one's face. They will go full nuclear and lose one of their best performers just to avoid having to pay one of their employees a living wage.

Have you ever been told this by an employer?

Well, u/anon-cant-quit has and she made them eat their words for breakfast, lunch AND dinner.

Using her spouse's business savvy and her knowledge of the business's operations she was able to successfully relieve her terrible boss of his clients and prove that he was t he replaceable one.
