Well, this week on “Insane emails managers have sent,” we have this brain-dead a-hole who sent an email that was so wild that it went viral across the internet and got them fired from their job in what has grown into a PR nightmare for the organization they were a part of.

A news report from the local news outlet, KCTV, provided confirmation of this with a quote from the organization that was linked in multiple Reddit threads we found.

"The restaurant representative stated: 'We strive to provide a caring and respectful work environment for our team members. This message is not aligned with our company’s values. We can confirm we have parted ways with this manager.'" -KCTV5

Screenshots of the email went viral across the internet, including hitting Reddit's r/all in multiple subreddits. The email has many wild takes as the manager goes off on a rant about workers missing work, the most notable of which is requiring workers to bring their dead dog into work to “prove it” if they want the day off for that reason. Reader's reactions, which can be found below, were in line with what you might expect from a thread like this.
