'I get injured and [there's] no loyalty': Employee on disability leave gets fired after missing 3 weeks of work; the Internet calls out a broken system of hypocritical bosses

Companies today are always complaining about labor shortages and how the workforce is getting 'too lazy' to go back to work. Au contraire you silly nepo-CEO's, it's not that there aren't any employees willing to work anymore, it's just that they're not willing to go back to work with no benefits, meager salaries, and to work overtime lining the pockets of a hypocritical boss that sends one email a week for a $500k annual salary. In this case, one man really learned the value of his loyalty to a dastardly boss, trading his trust in the company for a pink slip.

After dislocating his shoulder, OP was unable to go to work, so he filed for disability (like every W2 employee is entitled to do) and let his boss know that his doctor recommended 4 weeks of leave to heal the injury. Lo-and-behold, 3 weeks later, the man reached out to his boss to let him know he was ready to get back to work soon, and the boss was kind enough to let him know that there was no need. He had been replaced and they were firing him.

Scroll for the full, potentially illegal, story of how one man got fired for getting injured, proving once again that it's not the employees that are breaking the system, it's the money-grubbing, hypocritical bosses shattering our loyalties.
