‘I’m stuck in the outskirts of town with my truck': Truck driver left stranded in the suburbs on Christmas after incompetent boss forgets to authorize funds for gas

I can't imagine managing employees and treating them like toys you can ignore whenever you feel like it. It's as if it's okay to one day pretend you don't have any responsibility for them because you are too tired to deal with these commitments. Who puts these people in charge?

One truck driver was left literally stranded in the middle of nowhere without gas, all thanks to his boss. The boss in question was supposed to authorize funds for gas and food on the truck driver's journey, but failed to do so, resulting in the truck driver having no money whatsoever to get himself gas. That's not even the worst part… When the truck driver called his boss, he was met with a 'I don't have time for this' attitude that ought to get him fired.

The driver realized he was going to be stuck on the outskirts of town for days… and he would have to sleep in his truck because the nearby hotel would not accept him without payment. So the driver turned to Reddit… That is when the magic began.

Next up, an HOA was fighting a losing battle that they were still determined to win with residents who were far smarter than them.
