‘I went back to the station and quit’: Senior firefighter quits after 7 years after being written up by demanding manager

Paid or unpaid, it seems like the best workers always get terminated.

I see this a lot in my line of work… People who work hard don't get a return on their endless commitment. Why bother putting in lots of effort if it goes unappreciated? It seems as though managers don't know how to keep their employees happy.

This firefighter was volunteering at a local fire station for seven years when he finally had enough of upper management and their ridiculous demands. From asking him to work 28 twelve-hour shifts out of a 30-day month, to writing him up for not being enthusiastic enough about the job, he was completely fed up. He had been working free of charge for people who just didn't deserve it. He decided to quit, but first, he knew just how to annoy them even further… Scroll down for the full story and to find how what happened in the end, and then when you are done, scroll through another flabbergasting story of a guest who showed up at a hotel without the means to pay for the room they had booked, leaving the front desk clerk in an uncomfortable position.
