Boss Misses Email and Tries to Blame Their Late Report on 'Remote Workers', Gets Called Out

This horrible boss tried to blame their team for their poor reporting. They tried to claim that results were poor because their team had been working remotely, and there was a strong implication that the employees were slacking while working from home. The thing is that none of this was true. The boss had just refused to check their emails and wasn't aware of the timeframes that they were supposed to be keeping. Despite repeated attempts from the team members to get the boss on track, they waited until the absolute last moment. 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by one of the team members, Redditor u/moderatelyprosperous, whose boss attempted to scapegoat. They decided that they were not going to put up with their entitled behavior and ensure that the truth was known by upper management.
