‘My boss messed up’: Driver finds out he's getting fired via group chat boss forgot he's a part of

Every workplace has some kind of group chat, and you'd assume managers would check the members before spreading information about someone getting fired beforehand, but alas, in this case, they did not. OP found out that he was going to be fired in 3 weeks after his boss forgot that he was actually included in the group chat. OP was working as a driver for the company and had been accused of breaking something that according to him, was already breaking since he had started working.

The reason that his boss was going to wait for 3 weeks was because they were overworked and behind schedule. OP found himself at a loss for what to do, as he had a lot of debt and needed this job. Moreover, he hadn't even done what he was accused of. He wondered if he should just quit. Redditors were quick to chip in with some sound advice on r/antiwork. Scroll down to read what they had to say.
