'I won't be in tomorrow or ever again': Employee quits on the spot after boss chastises them for sitting down during 12 hour shift, despite doctor's note

Sitting down during a work shift is necessary… who could possibly stand for 8 to 12 hours at a time?

But hey, you don't know how to manage, you lose employees, right? And that is exactly what happened. Some bosses really dig their own graves, and this one did all the digging. Apparently, they enjoyed handling a shovel.

Scroll down for the ridiculous text exchange between this overworked employee and their boss who chastised them for daring to sit down during a 12-hour shift, even though the employee actually happened to be injured.
