'Quit my job suddenly via email': Worker quits their job because of a bad boss, boss demands they come in and talk face-to-face

Seldom do you quit a job and ever want to go back. It's surprising how the sudden absence of a paycheck removes all desire to set foot there ever again. This is especially true when you quit because of a bad boss or coworker; you would hope never to see them again if you can manage it.

When your boss is verbally abusive, going in for one last "face-to-face" discussion is probably the last thing you should do; the last thing you want to do is give them another chance to get in your face or spin a narrative against you.

That's the advice that this worker received when they recounted their experience at their toxic workplace with their terrible boss. They shared that their boss had slowly become more and more toxic and angry over the course of their time at the company, leading them to look for other work and quit via email once they had found one. Their boss then contacted them, asking them to come into the office. They shared their story on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit community, asking commenters what they should do regarding their boss's request.
