'Is he trying to get fired?': Employee photoshops picture of boss's family and sends it to the wrong chat, boss plays mind games to get even

Some people should simply not be allowed to text.

This employee made the egregious error of sending the wrong message to the wrong person: his boss. He had been joking around with a coworker and decided to photoshop a photo his boss sent to their whole team of his unfortunate-looking family. The employee superimposed his boss's face onto the faces of each member of his family in the photo as a commentary on their employer's bad genes. He meant to send it to his coworker only, but of course, the message was sent to the entire team.

Keep scrolling below to read about the employee's subsequent panic, his failed attempt to resolve the situation, and his boss's petty revenge. The good news is that the employee is no longer working at the company and enough time has passed that he can laugh at the situation. Has anyone else made this kind of error in the workplace? Feel free to comment below. For more stories like this, here's one about a candidate's nonsensical job application.
