'She quit so fast': New hire quits when boss promises to honor their leave dates then immediately revokes them

Scientists were astounded when a new material was discovered that is even denser than osmium: This boss's thick skull.

This thread was originally posted to Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole subreddit by the boss, who was resoundingly put in their place and declared completely wrong by everyone who responded. Commenters were so shocked by the boss's callous willingness to renege on promises—and so impressed with the worker's decision to quit on the spot—that one commenter cross-posted screenshots of the AITA post to Reddit's r/antiwork workplace subreddit. There the Original Poster received another round of roasting, with the influx of traffic to the original post prompting them to delete it. 

The most hilarious part of this entire thing has got to be the Original Poster's comment about even their fiancé calling them an idiot and the fact that they're clearly experiencing immediate repercussions for their problematic approach to leadership.

Keep reading to see screen grabs of the original thread before its deletion, along with a whole heaping of satisfying responses from both emerging threads. Next, check out this boss who tried to humiliate a security guard and quit when it backfired.
