"[My therapist] told me to quit, which I immediately did': Entitled contractor tells employee to get a therapist, employee maliciously complies

Talk about instant karma. In this story, an employee had been diligently contributing to his team's project, all while putting up with the constant yelling and overwork from his new contractor. Eventually, feeling completely burnt out, the employee decided to take a much-needed break. When he approached his boss about it, the reaction was far from supportive. The boss threw a tantrum, yelling obscenities and insisting the employee didn't need a break, but he actually needed therapist instead. Taking this advice to heart, the employee did go through with therapy only to realize just how toxic the work environment truly was. With newfound clarity, he made the bold decision to quit immediately.

As luck would have it, a fantastic opportunity came up for him and his team not long after. It seems that leaving that toxic situation was the best move they could have made. It's a classic case of things working out for the best in the end. Well, maybe not for the entitled boss, but we're okay with that.
