'This is literally hundreds of different customers orders': Nightmare boss tells factory worker to only run machines, worker decides to stop shipping orders for a whole week

This is such a satisfying story (for workers, not bosses).

One employee shared this story from a company they used to love, but which quickly went sour after a merger. Despite what managers or HR want to tell you, mergers aren't often positive developments for the current employees. U/allgoodnamestaken98 writes that at the factory they were working at, a merger caused a great workplace to tank, all because three different managers were each trying to prove they were the best.

This boss told his employee to only work on one part of the multi-step process of processing and shipping orders. These days, if you order something online, you can expect it to get to you crazy fast. Some items will come the next day, even if you didn't specify that you needed it so quickly! Other stuff might take between three to ten days to arrive. No matter what, the customers need their packages if the business is going to be successful. And customers will definitely not care about the reason their package hasn't even been processed yet! This company can kiss their customer retention rates goodbye.

Next up: modern problems have modern solutions, which this person found out when her partner dumped her using a note that A.I. (probably) wrote.
