'You can't be serious...': Employee quits after PTO for wedding and honeymoon is denied by micromanager, leaving company high and dry

There are brutal individuals in the corporate world. They would stop at nothing to make sure they succeed, and they are willing to pay whatever price to do so—even if it means compromising their morals, closest friends, and most reliable colleagues. Having stated that how would you respond if the latest hire sought to seize control by instilling fear? Regardless of how absurd her demands were, would you submit to them in silence or would you resist and hold your ground?

The story that follows, however, tells the tale of a hardworking employee who has reached his breaking point and will no longer put up with mistreatment from his newly appointed manager. The Original Poster (OP) worked for the same tech company for almost seven years. He was thankful for his manager and enjoyed his work. Over the years, he received numerous job offers, but he was never able to take the risk and venture out on his own.

But, as to be expected, all good things come to an end, and the boss quit to seek a career at a new company after a few outstanding years. However, things quickly went south when OP found out that, for the duration of the time he worked there, his amazing and hardworking boss had been shielding him from the harsh realities of the business.

I don't want to spoil the fun for you, but read the story below to find out exactly what happened when the boss left and how OP ended up quitting the job just a few months after getting married! When you're done, don't forget to read the account of the man who confronts his neighbor for trying to steal his TV!
