Manager Demands Worker Covers Shift on Their Day Off, Demands They Answer Their Phone When They Quit
An employee received a text from their boss last Thursday asking them to come in to cover a shift for their coworker. When the employee responded that they could not come in because they were studying for an exam, the boss answered that they were "expected to be available for tonight's shift." Things escalated to the boss saying they were "disappointed," and the employee decided it was time to walk away
The employee nailed it on the head; what a downright demanding individual. But we're starting to see so many posts like this it makes you wonder… just how prevalent is this?
This post was posted to the r/antiwork subreddit by Redditor u/Hoodtho after the incident last week. It was published with the title "Happened on Tuesday but [middle finger emoji] this idiot" and has hit the top of the subreddit with 21k upvotes.
Workers have been supportive and noted their thoughts on the topic. u/ItzYaBoiQuez noted that "Work likes to think it's your parent." which seemed to be something that many commenters could relate to. The comment has since garnered 3.3k upvotes.
