'It was a slap in the face': Pregnant employee's boss shames her at the company meeting for having to go to the emergency room
This garbage CEO should really think before he speaks. At a company meeting, he and the HR executive gave a speech about employees needing to "help reduce costs" by seeking primary care physicians over emergency care. That's when they used the following example: "going to the ER when you are just simply dehydrated…is NOT appropriate use of emergency care." What they clearly didn't know is that the employee who did that had a serious case of dehydration as a result of her pregnancy.
She shared her story via this thread on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, and her account of the story just goes to show that leadership should never generalize what is clearly an individual experience for the sake of a general argument. Not only were they shaming the Redditor for seeking emergency treatment, but also they had no idea about the details of the actual incident. They are also clearly unaware that dehydration can be way more serious than it might sound. Keep scrolling below to see what people had to say in the comments!
