'[He was] trying to count thousands of boxes before the deadline': Factory CFO changes inventory schedule, factory stops shipping orders while employees are overwhelmed with the task
Who knew a factory could have so many moving parts? Apparently the factory's own CFO was not informed of how his own company worked. Yikes.
One of those CFO's employees told the story of the time all of the employees were impacted by changes their manager made. They all worked at a food packing plant, and though u/batkevn doesn't specify which product they made, their job was ordering jars and other packaging for the food. They share that their job was pretty straightforward… until the CFO decided to go changing things.
This is common with managers who aren't sure how to lead. They decide to try new things, and their word is final. So what if the employees push back? This boss only had time to do what he felt was the best decision, and he certainly paid the price. His employees were the ones stuck cleaning up his mess. I'm sure all of the overtime was terrible for morale (and the OP even notes that a bunch of people called out of work or took their vacations in the aftermath).
Scroll down to read through the story and comments. After that, these people shared their ultimate moments of cringe that are still haunting them decades later, like the kid who was so excited to dress up for Halloween at school, just to realize they had gotten the date wrong and were the only one dressed up.
