'[He] thought it was appropriate to call me at 10 p.m. to berate me': Workers retaliate after wage changes; boss blames the one employee who had no idea about it

This boss had it coming. The OP practically ran the whole show at the company—hiring, training, fixing things, coming up with ideas, etc. The place couldn't function without him, and it seemed like the boss wanted it that way. Whenever something went wrong, it was never his fault. The OP was getting worn out. Constant calls and texts after hours, always there to fix things. But not this time. When the higher-ups announced wage changes, something the OP had nothing to do with, the employees weren't happy. And guess who the boss blamed? The OP. Find out how the OP dealt with it below (hint: the boss finally faced the karma he deserved).
