Let this serve as our weekly reminder that bosses should be careful with their choice of words.
Here, we have an employer who got increasingly frustrated with a piano technician for being under five minutes late on more than one occasion. Under five minutes should be considered negligible, but if an employer really feels that a conversation is necessary, there is a much better way of having it than what this dude ended up doing. He used vaguely threatening phrasing that almost begged to be challenged, and at this point, the piano technician was already planning on getting a better job elsewhere.
