Company sinks after three overworked employees quit together: 'Without us, they literally don't have a business going'

You know it's doomed when the well-being of a company is solely reliant on the work of three people. Several ways things can go wrong come to mind, the first of which obviously is the question of what will happen when one or more of the employees leaves.

If the owner is smart, they will do everything in their power to keep these three employees happy and fulfilled. If the owner is smart, they will create a contingency plan that starts with expanding the team before anything goes south. If the owner is smart, they will keep their nose to the ground so that any hiccups won't come as a shock. Unfortunately, however, this owner was not smart.

They were completely blindsided when the three overworked employees essentially decided to quit together, which led to a contentious final two leaves in the office. One of these employees, the one who shared his side of the story via the following Reddit thread, managed to finally have a one-on-one with the owner, a coveted opportunity to explain why conditions at the office were so poor.

Keep scrolling below to see what the owner said and to follow the fallout. For more stories like this, check out this post about a vindictive manager who docked an employee's pay.
