The corporate world is known for its intense rivalry. Therefore, regardless of how absurd they may seem, following business traditions is necessary if one wants to climb up the corporate ladder.

The story below is an account of a confused employee. The original poster (OP) returns from his lunch break to find an email from his boss. According to the email, arriving late is considered disrespectful and will not be accepted. The email also includes time stamps to substantiate the previously stated tardiness. Basically, the micromanager provided the employee with a time stamp indicating he was one minute, or sixty seconds, late for work, rather than solidifying his case with hard proof of the supposed tardiness.

So, if I was able to spark your interest and you're curious about what was in the email and how the Reddit community reacted as a result, be sure to look at the screenshots below! When you're done, don't forget to read the story of the man who retaliates against his cell phone company for charging him more to cancel his account—a move that leads to an official apology and the cancellation of charges!
