Micromanager Writes up Senior Employee for Leaving 3 Minutes Early, Resulting in His Own Humiliating Termination

If a manager is nice, people are more inclined to put up with a bad job than to continue with a wonderful job and a terrible boss. That is to say, the day, the month, and the year are determined by the leadership of the company.

The story below is an account of a frustrated employee. The original poster (OP) worked for a water corporation as a repairman for over twenty-five years. One week out of every month, OP has to be available for after-hours emergency repairs. Therefore, the story begins after a 24-hour shift. OP worked a 24-hour shift. The next day he arrived at work and was called into his manager's office. OP attended the meeting voluntarily, not knowing what to anticipate, but he was astonished by what his micromanager had to say. OP was reprimanded by the micromanager for wrapping up his 24-hour shift three minutes early. He made it clear that this was not the first time and gave OP notice that continued bad behavior would get him fired.

Enraged, OP stormed out of the office and decided to teach his micromanager a lesson he would never forget. So, if you're curious to learn how OP handled his micromanaging boss, make sure to read the story below!
