'I got quiet fired two days before my wedding': Employees discover their boss fires female coworkers when they get married, HR fiasco ensues

Imagine having to clean up this boss's mess! 

This employee compared notes with some of the other women on her team and realized that something strange was afoot. Essentially, 13 female employees either quit or were fired as they were approaching their late 20s. All of them were newly engaged, recently married, are about to start a family. 

The way HR attempted to get away with this nonsense was to give these women "disciplinary action" months in advance and to accuse them of not pulling their weight. Meanwhile, the women were not being given any more projects or responsibilities, so the accusations were frankly empty. Eventually, the Redditor, who chose to share this story on r/antiwork, decided to take matters into her own hands.

Keep scrolling below to see what happened as her wedding day approached and her tolerance for this nonsense was getting thinner and thinner. For more stories like this, check out this post about bosses who came to regret their newest hires.
