'Thanks for nothing...': Part time employee fills in for full time coworker, boss chastises him for going the extra mile instead of thanking him

The world of business isn't always enjoyable. In the corporate hierarchy, there are those at the top and those at the bottom. Having said that, even if initiative may wind up being rewarded, some managers would prefer you stay in your lane and focus solely on your designated task.

The following story is from the point of view of a disgruntled part-time worker. The original poster (OP) works part-time for an organization that fulfills orders. At first, everything was going smoothly; OP was satisfied with his job and his managers acknowledged the quality of the work he was producing. However, all changed when a full-time employee called in sick. In such a situation, two things might take place. The first would be to take control of the current situation; the second would be to ask superiors for advice and support. So when he discovered that the supervisors had chastised him for trying to take on a role that was above his pay grade and for his supposed bad judgment, he was taken aback.

Having said that, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning the specifics of what transpired! When all is said and done, don't forget to read the story about the employee who confronts a gym goer who refuses to adhere to gym policy!
