    Font - Be abusive to employees, say bye bye to your job My (former) boss was, simply put, an absolute ale. He was the type of person that had the ability to be so condescending while acting as if he was doing you a favour. His condescending attitude was sometimes downright abusive and he seemed to have a particular problem with all of the female employees, he acted as if they were dumb and needed assistance with every step. He loves to scream at people regardless of how little their mistake was

So we did the protocol, all of us piled together the evidence we had of him not sticking to booked off holiday schedules, having inappropriate and sometimes abusive language and we brought it all on one google doc. This was step 1.

    Font - Step 2 was getting a cherry on top, we did this by getting him to do one of his screaming tantrums at one of us. We wanted this to be as damning as possible and the youngest and smallest girl out of all of us volunteered to be the bait. She made an intentional beginners mistake in her paperwork, something bound to get her roared at. And the idiot took the bait.

    Font - Now you see, in our company there's this really not well made email system. You can send an email to an entire department (and I mean ENTIRE) as long as you have it's name and managers name.

We gave the email the subject: (BOSS'S NAME) VITAL INFORMATION, (BRANCH NAME), (DEPARTMENT NAME).

    Font - Of course our boss received the email as well and you could basically hear the clutter from his office, as people all over the company were contacting him to ask him what the hell this was about. HR did a light investigation into him and 'took heavy disciplinary action', as far as I know he wasn't directly fired but instead he resigned.

    Font - AradBBC OP Also I forgot to mention, one of those colleagues recently found his Facebook. and found out that he's getting a divorce.

    Font - AMay101 You didn't even need to be in a one party consent state since 10/11 members in your party agreed to film. It'd be funny if you made and sent the email from a work computer. IT tracks the email and... the call is coming from inside the house 481 Reply Share AradBBC OP I'm so happy you gave me that idea but so unbelievably sad I didn't think of it 208 Reply Share

    Font - daylily61 Many years ago, I had a boss VERY similar to this guy. Not the same man, because my ex-boss was a partner in the (optometric) practice. I HATE bullies, no matter how they're packaged. 304 Reply Share 113 ●●● Mental_Call6451 I named all my gray hairs after a boss like that. When I became a supervisor, I took everything I learned from that guy and actively avoid those behaviors. Reply Share ...
