Boss won't stop contacting former employee after she rejects his counteroffer: 'He proceeded to comment on 30 posts praising my work'

Why can't people just take "no" for an answer? Sure, this applies to many aspects of life from relationships to friendships to family dynamics. However, it also applies to one's professional relationships.

This part-time worker politely turned down an offer for a full-time position, and her General Manager simply would not have it. An hour after the meeting, he followed up over email apologizing for pressuring her in any way, but of course in sending said email, he was doing the exact opposite and only adding more tension. The Redditor proceeded to quit right then and there, but the desperate energy from her GM did not stop there.

Her former GM proceeded to contact on her virtually every social media platform known to humankind, including making public comments praising her work on around 30 social media posts. If he really thought all of this excessive energy was going to make matters better for him, then he must have a deluded sense of reality.
