'My replacement quit after I left... they didn't feel safe working for an untrustworthy boss': Loyal employee gets fired for no reason then wins a hefty lawsuit settlement, watching the company go up in flames afterwards

Getting fired for no reason is infuriating. When you've dedicated your life to a company, it's disheartening to be thrown away like yesterday's garbage at the first sign of trouble. No matter how much a company says "we're like a family", we all know that if they truly believe that, these CEO's probably have the most dysfunctional families on Earth. However, fortunately there are legal protections for some employees when they get fired that enable them to give their pseudo-family exactly what they deserve in the case of an out-of-pocket firing.

In this story, a loyal employee had dedicated years of his life to his job. After a ton of long hours, weekends working, and ingenious updates to the company lifestyle, u/nicklo2k perceived himself to be an irreplaceable employee. He was sideswiped when his bosses urgently shuffled him into their office after some financial troubles, notifying him that they would be firing him for a number of made up reasons.
