'Everything is inappropriate': Creepy boss gives employee flowers after his bullying forces her to quit

Giving someone flowers can be a wonderful gesture. They're a great Mother's Day gift, a nice housewarming present, not to mention a sweet show of romantic intention. It's a beautiful little tradition we have as a culture-- to give someone an arrangement of beautiful but fleeting living things to show that we care. Whenever I'm given a flower, I feel like the specialest girl in the whole world. But if my boss gave me flowers… that would have a different feel altogether. Especially if this was a boss that I usually had an issue with. 

That's what happened in this horror story Reddit post, where a worker was bullied into resigning, and then sent a pretty creepy gesture. It's one of those threads that keeps getting worse as you read. Just be glad you don't work there.
