Ungrateful bosses are a dime a dozen, and even more than that when you are working in customer service in retail. The turnover rate is high, employee satisfaction is low, and if you got a penny for every Karen you've crossed paths with, you would be so rich you wouldn't need a job.

But life isn't all rubies and roses, or however you say it. You won't always love your job, let alone your boss. This employee had been working non-stop weekends and giving her all to her company, but it was not enough. One day, her boss added another weekend shift despite it already being Friday… and besides, OP had plans. You can't just add more shifts and call it a day, ma'am.

OP protested said shifts, explaining that she could not come in, but her boss did not take kindly to her refusal.

Have you ever been confronted by an unruly customer in a grocery store aisle? Or are weird people exclusively attracted to me? Let me know… I can't be the only one.
